2.6 What’s New (OES 11 SP1)

Domain Services for Windows in OES 11 SP1 has been modified to run on 64-bit SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) 11 SP2. In addition to bug fixes, Domain Services for Windows provides the following enhancement in the OES 11 SP1 release:

Simplified Install

DSfW installation and configuration using the YaST administrative tool has been modified. The configuration screens have been reorganized to enable you to deploy a Domain Controller in a fast and easy manner. DSfW now enables you to deploy a domain controller using the Express Install option. Express Install minimizes the number of configuration screens and assigns default values for certain configuration parameters. For more information, see Installing Domain Services for Windows in the OES 11 SP1: Domain Services for Windows Administration Guide.

DSfW AutoYaST Install

DSfW AutoYaST enables you to install DSfW for a new forest domain, new domain in an existing forest, and new domain controller in an existing domain without any manual intervention.
