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:
Ê
Log on to the system console as system administrator
root
.
Ê
Start installation with the
cdinst
command and carry out the first steps as described in
the section
“Installing from CD-ROM with cdinst“
.
Ê
Select
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:
Ê
If 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.
Ê
Edit the
names.cfg
file and manually add two lines containing NetBIOS-name-to-IP-
address mappings:
