in a Directory tree as a Single Reference server. All other servers
default as Secondary servers. To select the default, press <Cntrl

Record the administrator's name on the
NetWare Services Installation Worksheet in Appendix A.
The default common name (CN) for the administrator of the
first NetWare Services server in a Directory tree is ADMIN. The
installation program creates this User object ADMIN directly under
the Organization (O=) level.
You can change the name of user ADMIN using the NETADMIN (or
NetWare Administrator) utility after the server is installed and
you have set up a workstation.
Type the administrator's password
and press <Enter>.
At the prompt, retype the password and press <Enter>.
(Optional) Record the password on the NetWare Services
Installation Worksheet in Appendix A.
To save Directory information, press <Cntrl
