Novell Client installation - Page 2

Hi Matt, AFAIK there is no DLU function in openSUSE/SLED as you have with Windows / ZenWorks for Desktops.
LUM (Linux User Management) is the Linux variant. You could also set the Linux workstation to authenticate against LDAP/eDirectory.

Also drop a post in the Novell forums (NOVELL FORUMS)

Hope that helps,
Wj

thanks, Magic13. I will take a look at LUM and get it configured. Do I need to have linux client install to authenticate with LDAP/eDirectory?

These two articles may help... LUM is only supported on SLES/SLED/OES, and officially only OES does LUM 'out of the box' at the moment.

These articles might help:
LUM on SLES/SLED : Configuring Linux User Management on non-OES2, SLES 10 Servers | Novell User Communities

Setting up LDAP auth: Ldap authentication from a wireless connection on a laptop - openSUSE Forums

LDAP auth can be setup using YaST's User Management module.

Cheers,
Wj
