  • Novell Management Tools
    04 0789729849_ch03.qxd 11/10/03 12:43 PM Page 91 CHAPTER 3 Novell Management Tools Using ConsoleOne ConsoleOne is a Java-based tool for managing your network and its resources. It can be launched by running CONSOLEONE.EXE from where it was installed (default: SYS:PUBLIC\MGMT\CONSOLEONE\1.2\BIN). By default, it lets you manage Novell eDirectory objects, schema, parti- tions, and replicas and NetWare server resources. If you install other Novell products, the appropriate management capabil- ities are automatically snapped into the version of ConsoleOne installed on that server. ConsoleOne is installed during the NetWare 6.5 installation, but can also be re-installed or installed locally from the Novell client’s CD. ConsoleOne also supports remote server console access through a Java applet called RConsoleJ. To access the NetWare 6.5 server console remotely, launch ConsoleOne and browse to the desired server. Select Tools, and then Remote Console. Accessing Web Manager Web Manager is a Web-based “home page” for accessing most of the NetWare 6.5 Web-based tools and services. To access Web Manager, open your Web browser and enter your Web server’s domain name or IP address, followed by a colon and the Web Manager port, which by default is 2200. For example: 04 0789729849_ch03.qxd 11/10/03 12:43 PM Page 92 92 PART I Getting Started https://www.quills.com:2200 or https://137.65.192.1:2200 Accessing iManager iManager provides role-based management of your NetWare network, together with a nearly comprehensive set of administrative tools.

In spite of the global economic crisis and slowdown in world trade, the future of international business is still bright. Now more than ever, you will likely work in the global economy. You might be working abroad or working in your home country for either a local multinational corporation or for a foreign-based company that is enter- ing your market. Whatever your future brings, it will be important for you to understand how to negotiate foreign languages and culture. It is one thing to study a language in school, but you also need to get used to different countries and cultures as well. Cultural is broad, and language is just one aspect. BYU is a great place to study, because over 70 percent of our students speak a second language and many have lived abroad for a year or more. In your classes, you will be able to interact with students from other countries but also with U.S. students with broad international experience. In any given class, you will have classmates with international experience in multiple countries in all regions of the world. These students have gained a knowledge of and love for the people, language, and culture of places where they have lived.
