5
Explain how NetWare 5 uses virtual memory.
 | NetWare
5 uses virtual memory paging. Page size is 4K. |
 | Least
used pages are moved to a swap file on a disk drive to free up RAM for other
uses. Swap file is created on SYS during installation. |
 | Swap
file shrinks and grows dynamically. Novell suggests deleting swap file on
SYS and recreating swap files on other volumes |
 | one
swap file per volume |
 | Data
moved to virtual mem will be stored on any available swap file on any volume |
Commands
 | "SWAP
ADD <volume name> [Parameters]" in Autoexec.ncf. Parameters of
SWAP file can be MIN, MAX, and MIN FREE. SWAP by itself displays swap file
info. |
 | "SWAP
DEL <volume name>" deletes a swap file from a volume and moves
its data to another volume. |
 | "SWAP
PARAMETER <volume name> [Parameter]=<value>" changes swap
file settings. |
Use
MONITOR.NLM --> Virtual Memory --> Swap Files to view swap statistics.
Disk Thrashing is excessive swapping of pages. The solution to thrashing is to
add RAM.
6 Describe the advantages, disadvantages, and storage concepts of the Novell
Storage Services (NSS) file system.
Benefits:
 | Handles
files up to 8 TB |
 | Unlimited
files in single directory |
 | Faster
access to data in files |
 | Volumes
mount and repair more quickly |
 | Low
RAM Requirements (32MB minimum) |
 | Supports
most types of storage devices |
 | Space
on multiple devices can be combined into one volume |
 | Enhanced
CD-ROM volume-mounting support |
 | Allows
4 NetWare partitions per disk |
 | Unlimited
volumes per NetWare partition |
Drawbacks:
 | Transaction
Tracking Services (TTS) not supported |
 | Disk
striping/mirroring not supported |
 | Hierarchical
Storage Management (HSM) not supported |
 | Real-Time
Data Migration (RTDM) not supported |
 | File
compression not supported |
 | VREPAIR
not supported (uses VERIFY and REBUILD instead) |
 | NSS
can’t be used on SYS. |
Components
 | Provider ==
scans devices to find free space. (NWPRV is the provider for NetWare volumes
and MMPRV is the provider for IBM-compatible volumes.) |
 | Consumer ==
manages free space by placing a deposit object to register ownership. It
builds logical, internal file input and output paths to helps NSS find
stored data. It registers itself in the free space to prevent other
consumers |
 | Storage
group == represents all disk space on server regardless of device. Storage
group can be organized into volume(s). |
7
Set up Novell Storage Services (NSS) on your server.
 | Design
an NSS volume by identifying its intended purpose |
 | Create
an NSS volume |
 | Load

10. Manage NetWare from the server using ConsoleOne.
To run ConsoleOne from a workstation, run SYS:\PUBLIC\MGMT\Console1.exe
ConsoleOne can be used to:
 | Rename,
Copy, Delete files in volumes |
 | Edit
text files (including server config files) |
 | Administer
NDS (But will only create new Group, Org., Org. Unit, or User objects) |
 | Access
local and remote server console consoles |
 | Manage
the local server file system |
Remote
server access (requires RCONAG6.NLM on server). Go to My Server, Tools,
RConsoleJ. In right pane, enter server's IP address and password, click Connect.
11 Install DNS and DHCP services.
- Extend
the schema and create default DNS\DHCP objects
- Install
novell client on adm machine sys:\public\dnsdhcp\setup.exe
- Install
DNS\DHCP management console and NW adm snap-in files
Three
ways to install DNS/DHCP on server:
 | Select
it during initial installation; |
 | Use
DNIPINST.NLM; or |
 | In
the GUI console, click the Novell button, then Install, then New Products. |
The workstation software is a Java app called the DNS/DHCP
Management Console. To install it, run SYS:\PUBLIC\DNSDHCP\SETUP.EXE.It adds a
snap-in to NetWare Administrator and it places an icon on your desktop. The DNS/DHCP
Mgmt Console has two tabs: one for DNS, one for DHCP. Be sure to use to correct
tab. Wkst 48 mb Ram 8.5 mbDNS/DHCP objects can be viewed in NetWare
Administrator, but you must use DNS/DHCP Mgmt Console to create, edit, or delete
DNS/DHCP objects.
Configure workstations to use DNS and/or DHCP in the
TCP/IP properties of the network control panel.
When the NDS schema is extended to support NDS objects we
will see 3 new objects:
 | DNSDHCP-Group
object - Contains users and any servers
running DNS/DHCP. It is automatically a trustee of a DNS or DHCP object.
Access to information contained in DNS or DHCP objects can be obtained by an
NDS object by making that object a member of the DNSDHCP-Group group object.
Any NetWare server designated as a DNS and DHCP server is automatically a
member of the DNSDHCP-Group Group object. This provides NetWare servers with
the necessary rights to DNS and DHCP configuration information within an NDS
tree |
 | DNS-DHCP
Locator Object - Contains global configuration
info, a list of servers, subnets, and zones in the tree. Used by DNS/DHCP
Mgmt Console to locate objects. Can't be configured, and doesn't display in
the Mgmt Console. |
 | RootServerInfo
- A Zone object used in looking up host names
outside your domain. It points to root servers on the Internet allowing you
to resolve domain names that belong to domains not maintained in your NDS
tree. |
12.
Configure and start DHCP services.
- Assign
a NetWare server as DHCP
- Configure
IP info
- Start
DHCP : DHCPSRVR
DHCP is a client/server service which provides
configuration parameters to Internet hosts. Both servers and clients are hosts.
There are two components to DHCP:
a protocol used to deliver the host-specific configuration parameters from a
DHCP server to a host; and an added protocol for assigning network addresses to
hosts.
DHCP provides all the necessary name and address
information needed to locate hosts on the network.
Relay agents
DHCP requests are broadcasts and therefore are not forwarded by routers. In
order for DHCP servers to respond to DHCP requests from remote segments, we must
employ a relay agent. A relay agent is software based and runs on a router to
forward DHCP requests to a DHCP server. The same agent then forwards responses
back to the workstation.Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) provides conf
parameters to Internet hosts
BOOTPFWD.NLM is Novell's implementation of a relay agent. BOOTPFWD.NLM must be
configured on NetWare servers that route segments that would otherwise not reach
the DHCP server. BOOTPFWD.NLM must be configured to forward DHCP requests to
your DHCP server.
There
are five new DHCP objects after nw is extended
|
DHCP
Server Object
|
Subnet
Object
|
Subnet
Address Range Object
|
IP address Object
|
Subnet Pool Object
|
A DHCP Server Object:The DHCP server object contains a listing of subnet ranges
that the DHCP server is servicing as well as server-specific configuration and
policy information. Can be created in the container o – ou –c -l
A DHCP subnet object:A DHCP Subnet object represents an IP network address that
is assigned to a physical network segment. The Subnet object is a container
object holding IP address configuration information that can be assigned to
nodes that reside on that particular IP network segment.
A Subnet Address Range objectContains a range of IP addresses available for
dynamic address assignment.
An IP Address object:Manually assigns an IP address to a specific machine on the
network or excludes the assignment of an IP address on the network.
A Subnet Pool ObjectAllows multiple Subnet objects to service DHCP request for a
network segment that has more than 1 IP subnet address configured on it. Create
in container objects
13. Import a DHCP database.
DHCP can import DHCP 2.0 or 3.0 file formats.Dns\dhcp management console| Import
DHCP db
14. Configure and start DNS services.
- Conf
DNS services using DNS\DHCP management console
- Start
DNS services : NAMED
- Conf
wkst to use DNS
Domain Name Services (DNS) can be up to
255 characters an it is not case sensitiveTranslates host names (such as 'www.cramsession.com')
into IP addresses (139.142.34.89).The master name server (a.k.a. primary name
server) maintains the database of resource records. Information maintained is
called Authoritative db in BIND format
Replica name servers (secondary name server) :maintains a copy of the
database from a master name server (through a zone transfer) and is used to
provide a faster, more local name server.
DNS resolvers : DNS clients , submits a request for an address to a srv
within its default domain.
A DNS Zone ( logical divisions of the Internet) is all or part of a domain for
which the server provides DNS services. For example, the novell.com domain can
be broken into a zone for support.novell.com and a zone for education.novell.com.
Each portion of the domain can have its own DNS server to handle requests within
the zone. Each DNS server has a Start of Authority (SOA).
There
are four new DNS objects:
|
DNS
Name Server Object
|
DNS
Zone Object
|
Resource
Record Set Object
|
Resource Record Object
|
Six types of resource record object (RRs):
 | A
(Address) - A Hostname to IP-address mapping |
 | NS
(Name Server) - A listing for another name server |
 | SOA
(Start of Authority) - This server's zone of authority |
 | CNAME
(Canonical Name) - An alias. Resolves alias hostname to primary hostname. |
 | MX
(Mail Exchange) - Maps e-mail addresses to domain names |
 | PTR
(Pointer) - Pointer to other records when doing reverse lookups. Used in IN-ADDR.ARPA
zones. |
DNS-Specific
NDS Objects: DNS Name Server, DNS Zone, Resource Record, Resource Record Set.
To change a resource record object, you must delete it and recreate
it.Designated serversNw srv assign to service a DNS zone objectsTasks

41 Describe compatability mode..
With a Migration Agent server on each segment there would be no problems
exchanging information sourced from either IPX or IP.The MA (Migration Agent) is
supported only at the NetWare server.
The MA is enabled by loading the IPX Compatibility driver
(scmd.nlm) with the Migration Agent option. The Migration Agents are then used
by the IP systems on the network. If more than one MA is needed, all Migration
Agents must be able to access the same IPX networks or be able to exchange IPX
network information. Migration Agents exchange IPX network information by
invoking the IP Backbone Support feature, which is accomplished by loading the
scmd.nlm with the backbone support options.CMD servers are pure IP NetWare
servers.

43. Configure and maintain compatibility mode on a NetWare 5 server.
44. Describe Service Location Protocol (SLP)
The Service Location Protocol provides the same function in IP networks as
SAP provides in IPX networks. It registers information in a database and allows
clients to query the database to find services. There are, however, two
principal differences between SAP and SLP:
SLP does not maintain a global database of services. It registers services only
in the local area. It discovers services in the local area via multicast
requests, which are forwarded using NDS replication from network to network
within a site.
SLP assumes that the client is able to locate either services themselves, or a
database server representing those services, using these pan-network multicasts.
Through Novell's integration of SLP with NDS, local SLP information is compiled
to provide a global representation of all available services on the network.
This provides dynamic discovery of services locally and scalability in large
networks.
45. Describe Novell's Public Key Infrastructure (PKI).Novell Public Key
Infrastructure (PKI) Services enables the use of public key cryptography and
public key certificates in an NDS-enabled network. PKI Services allows you to
request, manage, and store public key certificates and their associated key
pairs in the NDS tree and to establish and manage an NDS tree certificate
authority (CA) that is specific to your NDS tree and to your organization.
PKI Services also works with most commercial certificate authorities such as
VeriSign and with the major certificate authority software, such as Netscape CA
Server. PKI Services optionally generates PKCS #10 formatted certificate signing
requests (CSRs) that can be used by commercial or external certificate
authorities.
Novell PKI Services consists of a PKI NLM and a snap-in module to NetWare
Administrator. A network administrator uses NetWare Administrator as the
administration point for PKI Services.
Public key cryptography is the system of using digital codes called
"keys" to authenticate senders of messages and encrypt message
content.
Public key cryptography differs from conventional cryptography in that two
mathematically-related keys (a private key and a public key) are used instead of
one common key.
When data is encrypted using the public key, it can only be decrypted using the
private key. Conversely, when data is encrypted using the private key, it can
only be decrypted using the public key.
For example, if Alice wants to send Bob an encrypted message using public key
cryptography, Alice encrypts her message in Bob's public key.
Since only Bob knows his private key, only Bob can decrypt the message.
Likewise, Bob can send an encrypted response to Alice by encrypting the response
in Alice's public key. Only Alice can decrypt the response because only Alice
knows her private key.
Public keys are normally made available in the form of a public key certificate.
Public key certificates are certified by a certificate authority (CA). Normally,
this process involves some due diligence on the part of the CA to verify that
the individual or entity is indeed who they claim tobe.
Through the process of certification, users of a public key infrastructure have
some assurance that the public key certificates are valid. The level of
assurance depends on the policies and practices of the CA.
Public key cryptography is widely used for authentication and encryption in the
computer industry. Novell PKI Services for NDS uses it specifically for public
key certificate creation, issuing, and management.
