Migrating from NW to OES2/Linux SP3 and from SPx to SP3

Faithful NetWare is scheduled to retire to the great machine room in the sky this spring. Now is the last chance to learn how to migrate to OES2/Linux SP3. We also discuss how to upgrade to SP3 from earlier service packs. This is a hands-on course starting with a pre-built NW server and an empty destination machine. We build SLES 10 SP3 Linux, add OES2 SP3, and then migrate files, trustees, eDirectory, iFolder, DNS/DHCP, and iPrint to the new machine while retaining the old names. We also perform in-place upgrades of OES2 (a pre-built version is supplied) to the current SP3 level. The course is squeezed into one full day. Laptops are provided by Novell. If you wish to take home the VMware virtual machines remember to bring your own storage devices.

Enhancing security of OES2/Linux servers

By design, Linux and Unix are intended for friendly users. Alas, how times change. This one day course uses OES2/Linux SP3 to demonstrate the various ways by which we may protect the machine from both network and internal customers. Three important parts of this will be making IPtables work for us (we design our own filter), activating Apparmor execution profiles, and asking Apache to protect us. There are more items to tend though. The course will provide a pristine OES2/Linux VMware virtual machine on a Novell laptop. We discuss a security aspect, implement and test it, review it, and then on to the next. All methods can be taken home and implemented safely on production servers. Some familiarity with Linux is required.

Relocating your GroupWise System

Discover how to migrate GroupWise systems from one machine to another and what issues to avoid. The course will cover the movement of GroupWise from one machine to another, be that Netware to NetWare, to Linux or otherwise. The emphasis is how to relocate, optimise and enhance the deployment no matter what change in the systems identity, IP address or domain name. NSS and other file system optimisation, patching and version upgrades are also covered.
