Installing Advanced Server for UNIX Installing server software (asxserver package)

LAN Manager/X servers offer four types of server roles: primary domain controller, backup domain controller, member server and standalone server.

The server roles “member server” and “standalone server” are no longer supported with all Advanced Server for UNIX versions.

The server role “member server” becomes backup domain controller, and the “standalone server” becomes primary domain controller.

Please refer to the chapter entitled “Administration guidelines” for further information on how to change the server role after installation.

Domain name

During installation, the server is automatically allocated to a domain. Please refer to the chapter entitled “Introduction to Advanced Server for UNIX” for information on the naming conventions for domain names.

In the case of an upgrade installation, the domain name is automatically incorporated from the previous installation, if possible.

The domain name must not be modified manually in lanman.ini under any circum-

!stances.

Please refer to the chapter entitled “Administration guidelines” for further infor- mation on how to change the domain name after installation.

Name of the primary domain controller

If you wish to install a new backup domain controller, you will be asked to enter the server name of the primary domain controller.

Name of the administrator

During the new installation of a primary domain controller, the builtin account Administrator is created automatically.

During any installation of a primary domain controller, this account is used for all adminis- tration tasks during the installation.

For security reason, other administrative accounts may have been created on the primary domain controller with different names. During the installation of a backup domain controller, you will be asked to enter the name of an administrative account.
