DCEsetup allows you to define a new cell configuration on your Windows system. This option automatically enables the runtime Security and CDS client services and allows you to easily choose from the following DCE services:
· Distributed Time Service (DTS)
· Name Service Interface Gateway
· Global Directory Agent (GDA)
If you are not configuring your system as the master Security server in the cell, you must provide the following:
· Host name or IP address where the Security registry resides
If you are not configuring your system as the master CDS Directory server in the cell and the master Directory server is not reachable on the LAN, you must provide the following:
· Host name or IP address where the master CDS Directory server resides
In addition, if the cell uses multiple LANs, you must provide the following:
· LAN profile name for your host
You can also choose to enable additional options such as Integrated Login and Auto Start.
To perform a server configuration, pull down the Configuration menu and choose Create>Server....
Once the initial configuration is complete, DCEsetup remembers the options you have selected and the information you entered. For subsequent configurations, DCEsetup will provide relevant remembered information as defaults that you can either accept or change.
A Configuration Wizard makes it easy to perform a server configuration. If you click the Cancel button at any time during configuration, the configuration will be aborted and the existing configuration will remain in effect. A new configuration will take effect only when you run through all screens of the wizard and click Finish on the last screen. Once you click Finish, DCEsetup performs an Unconfigure operation and then configures the system according to the options you selected.
