I have a question I know you have to install edirectory before imanager but can someone that has installed Novell before please walk me through the steps from start to finish in a simple way?

Chris500 sounds like they ‘said’: [color=blue] > I have a question > > I know you have to install edirectory before imanager but can someone > that has installed Novell before please walk me through the steps from > start to finish in a simple way? > > Thanks,[/color] So my response to Chris500’s comment is… You’ll want to post this in one of the edirectory forums, as this one is strictly a ‘non-Novell support’ type forum. – Stevo ---

You might start there, and if you run into problems along the way, ask questions about what you’re having trouble with - in the appropriate support forum. 🙂 Jim – Jim Henderson, CNA6, CDE, CNI, LPIC-1, CLA10, CLP10 Novell/SUSE/NetIQ Knowledge Partner ---

Thanks - what I was referring to was installing edirectory then imanager and then netware and the order of installing them ## – Chris500 Chris500’s Profile: [https://forums.novell.com/member.php?userid=118277](https://forums.novell.com/member.php?userid=118277) View this thread: [https://forums.novell.com/showthread.php?t=475901](https://forums.novell.com/showthread.php?t=475901) ---

[https://forums.novell.com/forumdisplay.php/395-NetWare](https://forums.novell.com/forumdisplay.php/395-NetWare) is a good starting point for finding them. ## Jim Jim Henderson, CNA6, CDE, CNI, LPIC-1, CLA10, CLP10 Novell/SUSE/NetIQ Knowledge Partner ---

Hey Chris500: [color=blue] > I am new sorry - can you give me a link to an edirectory forum?[/color] [http://forums.netiq.com](http://forums.netiq.com) and you’ll find a link to eDirectory under the “Identity and Access Governance” heading. Good luck. – Kim - 4/2/2014 7:47:28 AM
