8.1 Restarting the Novell NCP/NSS IPC (ncp2nss) Daemon

If NSS is installed, NCP Server runs the Novell NCP/NSS IPC (/etc/init.d/ncp2nss) daemon in order to synchronize its settings with NSS. You must restart ncp2nss whenever you modify NCP Server settings or the Dynamic Storage Technology global parameter settings for NCP Server. by using any of the following methods:

  • Novell Remote Manager for Linux

  • ncpcon set commands

  • Editing the values in the /etc/opt/novell/ncpserv.conf file

The changes do not take effect until you have restarted ncp2nss and eDirectory (see Section 8.2, Restarting the eDirectory (ndsd) Daemon).

To restart the ncp2nss daemon:

  1. Log in as the root user, then open a terminal console.

  2. At the terminal console prompt, enter

    /etc/init.d/ncp2nss restart
    
  3. If ncp2nss restarts successfully, the following messages are displayed in the terminal console:

    Shutting down Novell NCP/NSS IPC daemon...
    
    Exited
    
    Starting the Novell NCP/NSS IPC daemon.
