This section gives a list of the eDirectory utilities on Linux and their usage.
NOTE:After installation, ensure that you run the ndsconfig, ndscheck, and ndslogin utilities from the installed location on the server, which is /opt/novell/eDirectory/bin by default. Do not run ndsconfig from the installation package.
For more information on the usage of the eDirectory utilities, see the man page for each utility and the section Troubleshooting Utilities on Linux
in the NetIQ eDirectory 8.8 SP8 Troubleshooting Guide.
