Installing Advanced Server for UNIX Installing the prerequisited packages

In the case of multiprocessor systems the parallel NetBIOS is installed automatically, which increases performance.

Please deinstall the previous version of LAN Manager/X or Advanced Server for ! UNIX.

A new UNIX kernel is generated during installation; the file mtune is modified here.

Now install NetBIOS, working through the following steps:

ÊLog on to the system console as system administrator root.

ÊStart installation with the cdinst command and carry out the first steps as described in the section “Installing from CD-ROM with cdinst“ .

ÊSelect nbrfc for the NetBIOS software from the selection list for the packages.

●Do not under any circumstances select the option Complete Product if you are

!installing using cdinst.

●The nbrfc package must be installed before the rest of the software.

The system will now copy the files from the data medium, set up NetBIOS for all network controllers in the system automatically, and generate a new UNIX kernel. This process will be displayed on the screen, though it may take a little time.

The configuration data is stored in the /var/opt/nbrfc/conf/interfaces.cfg file during installation. If a file already exists, it will not be overwritten.

If you are installing a backup domain controller, the local machine will need to be able to find the primary domain controller during installation of the asxserver package. Therefore, if you are installing a backup domain controller and the primary controller of the domain you want to join is located in a different subnet, you have to ensure that the domain name and the server name can be resolved by the local NetBIOS. This can be accomplished in the following ways:

To ensure that the primary domain controller can be found if WINS is not used:

ÊIf the file names.cfg in the directory /var/opt/nbrfc/conf does not exist, create it by copying the names.sam file in the same directory.

ÊEdit the names.cfg file and manually add two lines containing NetBIOS-name-to-IP- address mappings:
