Hi,
I am looking for info on
1. how to setup single DC server for managing users accounts,printers and
softwares on win2000/xp workstations, under novell NDS environment(over 5000
PC in 13 subnets).

2. I want to be able to access workstations even while user does not have
MS/NW client.

3.I want to use MOM to manage all workstations intsead of novell login
script.

Any clues or site...

Thanks and regards
 
Mubeen,

1. At the very least you'd want two DCs for fault tolerance. You'd need to
do/ have done a network analysis to determine how many servers and the
placement of the servers. You don't just have one NetWare server running
all this, right?

2. This would do this with the domain admin accounts.

3. Make sure to evaluate MOM to look at its capabilities and reporting to be
sure it meets your needs before you jump on this one. AD might be all you
need rather than MOM or SMS. Evaluate this carefully.

Remember AD is every bit as complex as NetWare and you'll need the same care
and expertise in planning this as you did you NetWare side.
