Before you install and use the driver, you should determine which kind of installation you want to use: local or remote.
A local installation installs the driver on the same host computer where you have DirXML and Novell eDirectoryTM installed.
A remote installation installs the driver on a different computer than the one where DirXML and eDirectory are installed, or it allows the driver to run in its own process space on the same computer. Remote installations can use SSL encryption to ensure data privacy between the driver and the DirXML engine. You should use this configuration when it is not possible or desirable to run the driver on the same host with eDirectory and DirXML.
