When you create a slave catalog, you create a copy of the master catalog. The master catalog receives updates from the dredger and sends these updates to the slaves. Slave catalogs are especially useful in Wide Area Networks. You could create a master catalog at a company's headquarters and replicate that information to remote sites.
Launch NetWare Administrator and choose the container in which you want to create the slave Catalog object.
Right-click and choose Create.
Choose the NDSCat:Slave Catalog object icon and click OK.
If the NDSCat:Slave Catalog object class is missing from the list, make sure you have installed the Catalog Sevices snap-in and thereby modified the NDS schema.
In the Create Catalog dialog, specify the Catalog name, check Define additional attributes, and then click Create.
NOTE: You need to give the slave catalog a different name than the master catalog.
To further identify the catalog, fill out the identification page according to the help screen.
