  2. Accept the license agreement, then click Next.

  3. Select setup type, then click Next.

    If you select the Complete setup option, the default values are used.

  4. (Conditional) If you select the Custom setup option, the Choose a destination folder dialog box appears.

  5. (Conditional) Click Next, to install Novell SecureLogin to the default folder or click Browse and choose another folder to install.

  6. Click Microsoft ADAM > Next.

  7. (Optional) Select Enable Microsoft Active Directory Group Policies.

    NOTE:The group policies option is used where the ADAM directory is working along with Microsoft Active Directory or if Microsoft Active Directory is utilized for Novell SecureLogin in LDAP mode.

  8. In the Do you want to use smart card dialog box, select No.

  9. (Conditional) If you want to use smart card and if ActiveClient is detected in your system, select Yes, Click, then continue with Step 10.

  10. (Conditional) If you want to use smartcard and if ActiveClient is not detected in your system:

    1. Select Yes, Click Next.

    2. (Conditional) Select a cryptographic service provider from which Novell SecureLogin will request PKI credentials via Microsoft Crypto API.

    3. Click Browse and select a PKCS#11 compatible library required for accessing the smartcard, then click Next.

      NOTE:This will specify the location of the Cryptographic Token Interface installed as part of the smartcard vendor’s software. These API files will be used by Novell SecureLogin to communicate with the smartcard.

      Manually configuring the third party smartcard PKCS library Assumes a high level of understanding the Cryptographic Service Provider’s product.

      For more information and instructions about smartcard settings and cryptographic tokens, see the Novell SecureLogin 6.1 SP1 Administration Guide.

  11. (Conditional) The Installation options dialog box is displayed if you have selected the Custom setup option.

    The Directory administration tools are provided for corporate environments to manage users centrally at the directory.

  16. If applicable, select Install Citrix and Terminal Services support.

    This is highly recommended to enhance the performance of Novell SecureLogin in a Citrix environment.

  17. Click Next. The cache location folder page is displayed.

    IMPORTANT:Consider the following information before changing the cache location:

    • The user's application data folder is the Triple DES or optionally AES encrypted repository for all Novell SecureLogin user data, which includes credentials, preferences, password policies, preconfigured applications, and application definitions.

    • By default, Novell SecureLogin data is stored in both your organization's corporate directory and in the Novell SecureLogin offline cache on your workstation's hard drive. The data in the directory and the local cache are synchronized to ensure user data is always current.

    • When the smart card is used to store application credentials, the credentials are stored on the smart card and directory only. The cache and directory contain the application definitions, policies, and settings for single sign-on.

    • If smart cards are not used in the LDAP implementation, you can turn off the cache using an administrative preference so that the users access their single sign-on data from the directory only. This option has an impact on system performance.

  18. If you want to change the location of the cache folder, select Custom Location > Browse and locate the an alternative folder.

  19. Click Next. The Ready to install the program page is displayed.

  20. Click Install. The installation process takes a few minutes. A confirmation message appears after the installation is complete.
