NMAS Methods Installation

Possible Cause:  Failure to install one or more of the following NMAS methods:

• CertMutual
• DIGEST-MD5
• NDS
• Simple Password
• X509 Certificate
• X509 Advanced Certificate
• Enhanced Password
• Entrust
• NBM LDAP
• NDS Change Password
• NMAS Proximity Card
• Secure Workstation
• Universal Smart Card

Action:  Option 1 : Run MethodInstaller.exe from the NBM CD\Nmas_EE\NmasMethods.

Option 2: Run NMASInst.nlm manually after the install.:NMASInst -addmethod <user DN> <admin password> <config file path>.

Here the configFilePath is the full path of the file config.txt present in the corresponding NMAS method folder.

These files are copied to sys:\SYSTEM\nds8temp\products\ nmasmthd folder. For example, if you want to install the CertMutual method, your command will look like: NMASInst -addmethod admin.org mypassword sys:\SYSTEM\nds8temp\ products\nmasmthd\CertMutual\config.txt

Explanation:  As above, you may view sys:\etc\nmas\nmasinst.log for status/details of what happened.

If you find that the files or directories in sys:\SYSTEM\nds8temp\ products\nmasmthd\<NMAS Method> are empty, copy them from the product CD from the location Nmas_EE\NmasMethods\Novell \<NMAS Method>
