HP ProLiant 4500 Compaq Tips and Tricks for NetWare 5 - Page 12

Compaq Tips and Tricks for NetWare 5 12 language. And the only correct GUI in the first paragraph is the XWindows GUI, discussed in a later section. That's it. Nothing fancy; nothing more. Now with more tips.... • To launch ConsoleOne, use the command C1Start. Both ConsoleOne and XWindows will launch. • To display specific information about hardware components and specific drivers-such as slot number and hardware instance number-place your mouse over a driver's name when in NetWare 5's graphical installation. Then press Enter. Using Java Applications with NetWare 5 NetWare 5 and its compatibility with Java, an Internet-standard, programming language, demonstrates Novell's direction in the Internet world. Here are two tips to help you work better with Java applications. • To force a Java application to launch in a new window, type JAVA -NS. Any Java programs launched will then appear as separate entries in the Task Manager (Ctrl+Esc). • To kill all Java-based applications, except ConsoleOne, type JAVA -KILLALL at the command prompt. Individual Java applications can also be shut down by typing JAVA -SHOW to obtain the process number; then type JAVA -KILL followed by the ID number of the process you want to kill. Using NDS with NetWare 5 A well-integrated family of directory-based services, Novell Directory Services (NDS) helps you centrally manage user access privileges and security across the Internet and your enterprise intranets and extranets. Of prime importance, it provides proxy, firewall, and virtual private network services. And, even if you don't install NetWare 5, you can use this great directory service on most networking systems. But you probably already know this. What you might not know is that to install NDS, as well as NetWare 5, itself, you must have a Network Interface Controller (NIC) already installed with the proper driver. Without a functional NIC, your directory services installation is doomed for failure. So plan ahead for this installation. IMPORTANT: The latest version of NDS, also compatible with NetWare 5.1, was originally named NDS v8. The name, however, has been changed to NDS eDirectory with the rollout of NetWare 5.1. So if you look for more information on NDS, it'll be under NDS eDirectory. And our last NDS tips.... • Since the release of NetWare 5, the screen saver has been separated out of monitor and has begun authenticating users to NDS before unlocking the console. Although a step in the right direction, you can only unlock the console if you have Supervisor rights to the NDS Server Object. • SERVER -ND will allow the server to boot without loading NDS.
