Netware Directory Services
<networking> (NDS) Novell, Inc.'s directory services for Netware, Windows
NT, and Unix. The NDS directory represents each network resource (user,
hardware, or application) as an object of a certain class, where each class has
certain properties. For example, User and Print Server are object classes and a
user has over 80 properties such as name, login, password, department, and
title.
The directory is hierarchical, divided into branches by rules of containment. A
given object can only belong to a given container (or branch). The rules
governing classes, properties and, rules of containment are known as the schema.
