LAN Manager/X servers offer four types of server roles: primary domain controller, backup
domain controller, member server and standalone server.

The server roles “member server” and “standalone server” are no longer supported with all
Advanced Server for UNIX versions.

The server role “member server” becomes backup domain controller, and the “standalone
server” becomes primary domain controller.

Please refer to the chapter entitled

“Administration guidelines”

for further information on

how to change the server role after installation.

Domain name

During installation, the server is automatically allocated to a domain. Please refer to the
chapter entitled

Introduction to Advanced Server for UNIX

for information on the naming

conventions for domain names.

In the case of an upgrade installation, the domain name is automatically incorporated from
the previous installation, if possible.

The domain name must not be modified manually in lanman.ini under any circum-

stances.

Please refer to the chapter entitled

Administration guidelines

for further infor-

mation on how to change the domain name after installation.

Name of the primary domain controller

If you wish to install a new backup domain controller, you will be asked to enter the server
name of the primary domain controller.

Name of the administrator

During the new installation of a primary domain controller, the builtin account

Administrator

is created automatically.

During any installation of a primary domain controller, this account is used for all adminis-
tration tasks during the installation.

For security reason, other administrative accounts may have been created on the primary
domain controller with different names. During the installation of a backup domain
controller, you will be asked to enter the name of an administrative account.
