DirXML Driver Installation Featuring the NT4 Domain Driver
Welcome to the DirXML Driver Installation Course. This is one of a series of DeveloperNet University courses that will help you learn Novell eDirectory and supporting infrastructure.
This course gives detailed instructions for the installation of the NT4 Domain Driver for DirXML. This is meant for an audience of technically proficient users who understand NT Domains and eDirectory Trees and is written to the lowest common denominator so more advanced users may find it a bit tedious and detail rich. Please check the list of software required for this install. It is not necessary to have all of it when you start but it will be much easier if you collect it all before you start.
