Merging NetWare 3 Users with Duplicate NDS Users
You have the following options for each NetWare 3 user:
- Merge the NetWare 3 user with the displayed NDS user
Simply leave the NetWare 3 user displayed as it is in the table and continue with the next user.
- Merge with an NDS user other than the currently displayed NDS user
Click the arrow by the NDS username to view a drop-down list containing all the NDS users that have the same username (including contexts) as the adjacent NetWare 3 user. Select one of the NDS names, then continue with the next NetWare 3 user.
- Do not merge the NetWare 3 user with any of the NDS users
If you know that none of the listed NDS users represents the same person as the adjacent NetWare 3 user, click the arrow by the NDS username and then click Don't Merge.
When you have made a decision for each listed NetWare 3 user, click Finish.
The NetWare 3 users that you chose to merge with NDS User objects appear automatically as dropped objects in the destination NDS tree.
