upgrade edir 8.7.3 to 8.8.2 or 8.8.3?
Our tree: Netware 6.5SP7 and OES2/Linux, edir 8.7.3.10b ftf1 and edir 8.8.SP2 ftf2 I started to install new servers with edir 8.8 some month ago, some of the edir 8.7.3 servers will be switched of before long. Now I want to upgrade the remaining 8.7.3 servers to 8.8. It seemed clear to me that I wouldn't install 8.8.2 if 8.8.3 is out. But after reading the postings here, I am quite unsure... My questions: Isn't it dangerous to stay at 8.8.2? Some of the fixed problems are overflows - these might be security relevant? I saw two problems with 8.8.3 here: the ldap probl...

how to backrev edir 8.7.3.8 to 8.7.3.7
Im need to back rev 8738 to 8737 for Netware 6.5 SP5 server. I've looked though TID 10100930 but am not sure if it applies since FACT only list this is for Solaris, Linux or HP. Please let me know if it's ok to follow this TID if not, please point me in the right direction. Thank you! Hi, ralph@canon.com wrote: > > Im need to back rev 8738 to 8737 for Netware 6.5 SP5 server.

eDir 8.7.3 and eDir 8.7.3.3
This is a multipart message in MIME format. --=_alternative 0078B44D85256F94_= Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" I have about 30 NW6 and 10 NW6.5 server. I want to upgrade to eDir 8.7.3.3 across the board. I was also thinking of upgrading NICI 2.6.5 and adding the SECUPD2a and NMAS 2.3.5 This requires me to reboot the server 5 times fro the NW6 servers and 4 times for the NW65 servers. Is there a consolidated support pack that I can build to upgrade all or some of these together. Just cycling the server 5 times will take about an hour! --=_alternat...

Ok Iam confused with the roll back issue. What is the Edir that is working Iam hearing Novell rolled back 8.3.6 but I can only see that 8.7.3.4 is stable but Iam not hearing if 8.7.3.5 is ok.

Upgrade of eDir 8.6.2 to 8.7.3 / 8.8
I have a couple of NW6 servers running eDir 8.6.2 - I'd like to update them to 8.7.3 to take advantage of all the features of iManager 2.5 1.

[IDM 3] eDir 8.7.3.8 or 8.8
Hello, I'm going to install a IDM 3 on SLSE 9 in a production environment to synchronize some systems. What is the best solution for the identity vault version , eDir 8.7.3.8 or eDir 8.8 ? This meta directory will be used only to consolidate some information that will be accessed with a web interface and will do some provisioning. Are there some known bugs with eDir8.8 ? R�mi. If you are ever going to want to go to 8.8 and above I would start with it. It probably isn't quite as stable as 8.7.3.8, but upgrading to 8.8 once IDM is installed is problematic and requires ...

eDir 8.7.3.2 to 8.7.3.4
Can the 8.7.3.4 patch be installed on only one server of a multi-server network? We currently have 6 5.1SP6 and 3 6.5SP2 servers all running 8.7.3.2 but only one of the 6.5 servers is needing the patch at this time. It can, but if your goal is to fix the dsloader memory leak in 6.5 sp2, every 6.5 server requires the fix. -- Andrew C Taubman Novell Support Forums Volunteer SysOp http://support.novell.com/forums (Sorry, support is not provided via e-mail) Opinions expressed above are not necessarily those of Novell Inc.

eDir 8.7.3.8 v. 8.8
Hello everyone. We're currently running eDir 8.7.3.7 on several NetWare 6.5 sp5 servers. What are the pros/cons of upgrading to eDir 8.8 vs. applying the 8.7.3.8 patch?

eDir 8.8.2
I'm looking for information re: coexistence with eDirectory 8.8.2 on new OES2 Linux servers installed in an existing tree that largely consists of OES NetWare 6.5 SP7 (eDirectory 8.7.3.9) servers. Is 8.8.2 backwards compatible? I read through the OES2 documentation, including section 14.2.3 (eDirectory Coexistence and Migration), but found the information to be lacking.
