Dell PowerVault 770N (Deskside NAS Appliance) - Manual (Page 77)

After doing all the preparation described above, perform the following steps (adjusted, if necessary, to your situation):
1. Back up your NetWare user and system data.
2. Install and configure a Windows domain controller (see the documentation that came with your operating system
software).
3. Install the Novell Client for Windows from the Novell website at www.novell.com/download.
4. Install MSDSS from the NAS system DomainUtils share.
NOTE: To access MSDSS software, map a network drive to \\Dellxxxxxxx\DomainUtils, where xxxxxxx is the
system's service tag number. For example, if your service tag number is 1234567, type http://DELL1234567.
5. Log in to the NDS tree or Bindery server with administrative credentials.
6. Log in to the appropriate Windows domain as a member of the Domain Admins group.
7. On the MSDSS server, open the Help files, and then print out the steps (briefly summarized below) for "To perform a one-
way synchronization" or "To perform a two-way synchronization."
8. Click the Start button, point to Programs → Administrative Tools→ Directory Synchronization to start MSDSS, and
then allow the prompts to guide you through the following tasks:
a. Start the New Session Wizard (right-click MSDSS in the console tree).
b. Select Novell Bindery or Novell Directory Services (NDS) for one-way synchronization, or select Novell
Directory Services (NDS) for two-way synchronization.
c. Select One-way synchronization (from Active Directory to NDS or Bindery) or select Two-way
synchronization (from Active Directory to NDS and back).
d. Specify the path to the Active Directory container into which you want to copy items.
e. Accept the default domain controller in which to store the session database.
f. Specify the NDS Container or Bindery Container from which to copy items.
g. Provide the name and password of the Novell administrative account.
h. On the Initial Reverse Synchronization page, select Perform an initial reverse synchronization.
i. Still on the Initial Reverse Synchronization page, specify the password options (such as Set passwords to the
user name).
j. On the Object Mapping Scheme page, click Default (to accept the default mapping for each source and target
directory pair) or Custom (for NDS only), and then click Object Mapping Table (to specify objects for which you
want to establish a one-to-one relationship, regardless of the object location in either directory tree).
MSDSS does not support custom object mapping for Bindery.
k. Still on the Object Mapping Scheme page, click Filters if you want to configure a filter for this synchronization
session.
l. On the Session Name page, accept the default session name or specify a new name.
m. Click Finish.
9. If you selected one-way synchronization, you should now perform all user, group, and NDS organizational unit container
(OU) object management from Active Directory. If you established two-way synchronization, you can now manage user,
group, and OU objects from either Active Directory or NDS.
10. If you plan long-term coexistence between Active Directory and NetWare, you are now finished, unless you want to
migrate a subset of users, systems, and/or files. If you plan to continue by migrating in stages from NetWare to Active
Directory, perform the following tasks in the time-frame that is convenient for you:
Install and configure File and Print Services for NetWare (to allow NetWare clients access to files and printers on
