-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft Systems Management Server version 2.0 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

Systems Management Server 2.0 now has native support for Novell NetWare
Directory Services (NDS) servers and clients. For the Systems Management Server
2.0 NDS components to work correctly, the most recent version of the Novell
IntranetWare network redirector must be installed on the site server.

Without the IntranetWare Client installed on your site server, SMS_EXECUTIVE
generates an error message indicating NDS Logon Manager stopped:

  Severity: Warning
  Component: SMS_NDS_LOGON_SERVER_MANAGER
  Message ID: 2303
  Description: SMS NDS Logon Server Manager detected that there is no NetWare
  NDS redirector installed on the site server. SMS NDS Logon Server Manager
  cannot configure NetWare NDS containers and volumes for the NetWare NDS Logon
  Discovery and Client Installation methods until an appropriate redirector is
  installed on the site server.

  Solution: Install an appropriate NetWare NDS redirector on the site server.
  Please refer to your SMS documentation or the Microsoft Knowledge Base for
  further information.

STATUS
======

Microsoft recommends the use of Novell IntranetWare Client version 4.5 or later
for Windows NT when configuring Bindery Emulation site systems or when
configuring NDS site systems from a Systems Management Server 2.0 site server.
