A.0 Linux/UNIX Installation File Locations
Installations of NICI v2.7.0 and later for Linux platforms use LSB-compliant directory structures. The installation moves the existing installation (if any) to an LSB-compliant directory structure and makes links to the old directories in order to not break anything. For Linux and UNIX environments, the following directories are used:

Symbolic links are used to provide compatibility with the paths used by previous versions of NICI.The following table shows the symbolic links by platform:
NOTE:The man pages might have links from /usr/share/man/* to /opt/novell/man/*.
Links are subject to change from version to version, and might not always be present.
