A characteristic of an NDS object. Each type of object (such as a User object, Organization object, or Profile object) has certain properties that hold information about the object.
For example, a User object's properties include login name, E-mail address, password restrictions, group memberships, etc.
As another example, a Profile object's properties include profile name, login script, and volume.
The only properties required for objects are those you enter when you create a new object. You must enter a value in each field.
Properties you must enter when you create an object can be properties that name the object, or properties required to create the object.
For example, when you create a volume object, you must specify the volume's host server.
Many of an object's properties can contain multiple values. For example, the telephone number property, found in many object types, can contain several different telephone numbers.
NETADMIN and NetWare Administrator allow you to see and change properties for any object to which you have sufficient rights.
