• Apache Web Server

• Jakarta Tomcat Servlet Gateway

• Novell iManager

Before you can manage ZENworks for Servers 3 by using the policy-enabled server management Web components, your management console must have of the following components installed:

• Windows 95/98 Novell Client 3.31

• Windows NT/2000 Novell Client 4.81

• Internet Explorer Version 5.0 or later

Prerequisite Checklist

The following is a checklist of items that you should verify before attempting to install ZENworks for Servers 3:

• Latest Novell Client. You should download and install the latest Novell client on your management console and installation workstation(s).

• DNS Name Resolution. Verify that you have the correct DNS name resolution for your installation and management console workstations, as well as all servers you identified on your network map.

• eDirectory Connection. Verify that your installation and management console workstations are able to connect through eDirectory to the servers on which you are installing ZENworks for Servers components.

• ConsoleOne. Verify that your management console workstation is running at least version 1.3.3 of ConsoleOne. This is included on the companion CD with ZENworks for Servers.

• Novell eDirectory. Verify that your servers are running Novell eDirectory version 8 or above.

• Support Packs. Install the latest support pack on your NetWare 5 and 6 servers.

• Java Virtual Machine. Make certain that JVM 1.3 is installed on your Netware servers.

• Service Packs. Install at least the Windows NT Service Pack 6a and Windows 2000 Service Pack 2 on your Windows NT and 2000 servers respectively.

• Apache Web Server. Install the Apache Web server on Windows servers that require it.

• Jakarta Tomcat Servlet. Add Jakarta Tomcat to any Windows Servers on which you installed the Apache Web server.

• Internet Explorer. Verify that any workstations that you want to manage ZENworks for Servers 3 are using the Web-based tools from a workstation that has Internet Explorer version 5 or above installed.
