I have a Novell client install script that I use. Here is the contents of the batch file. I think I pretty much borrowed it from someone else, so don't be impressed.


:: OPTIONAL: Install Novell Client32 2.90 SP2
@ECHO OFF
todo.pl ".reboot"
todo.pl ".ignore-err 1 %Z%\packages\novell\acu.exe /U /D:NO"


Essentially, I just use the ACU that comes with the novell client. You can customize it with the NCIMAN.EXE that is in the admin directory of the client32 distro.

When Unattended is set to automatically login, so it can run its scripts, it logs into the workstation only, and doesn't even try to authenticate to the tree. It's nice.
When the scripts are all done, it leaves you looking at the login screen, ready to authenticate to the tree.

Sorry, I don't have a groupwise script.

BTW: I'm on list.

        Subject:        [Unattended] Some questions about Novell clients, and groupwise, and other erratta..



Hiya...

I have just polished off the unattended 4.6 base install, and have it
working, and installing OSes of my choice.. In fact, I've extended it a
little bit to include our core Linux distros for servers, and must say,
unattended is an impressive piece of work!...

I will admit right off the top that I'm still learning the ropes as it
were, but thought I would throw a few questions out an hopefully avoid
some bruising of the forehead...

1) Has anyone built a Novell client install script?... We use Novell as
our primary authentication piece, and if someone's already gotten the
client install to work, that would make my life a LOT easier...
2) Same vein, has anyone gotten Novell Groupwise to install?...

Both of these items are critical to the "base" install set...

I would also like to create a "Server" install that doesn't include
anything other than the selected O/S, since we build servers for their
individual requirements...

3) How do I change the default timezone?... We're in Pacific time, I
have another site that's on Mountain (they will have their own server),
and I notice that the install puts the machine into the Eastern
Timezone...

Thanks kindly...

Richard W.
