Chapter 1: Defining Network System Components: Lab Work
In AS 106, do the following Activities. Record the requested results and
submit, either electronically or on paper. Due September 11, 2007.
Activity 1-1: Logging in and Changing your Password – page 9
At step #2, log in with the user name that has been given. For
example: 10admin, 11admin, 12admin, etc.
You will use these same logins for the semester. The password for
each is ‘password’. After you enter the password, click the Advanced
tab. You’ll have to change the tree, context and server to get into the
classroom server. From the Advanced tab, click ‘Tree’ and select
UAS_TREE from the options given. Click OK, then click ‘Context’ and
select ‘Class’ then select your context from the options given. For
example, the student who has 10admin will select 10UAS. These are
the contexts (organizations) that you’ll be working with for your
assignments this semester. Click OK, then select ‘Servers’. Scroll
down to the bottom of the list, double click the UAS organization to
display the contents and select UAS-HOST. This object represents the
Novell server that we’re working from. Click OK, then OK again to
continue the login process. You have just completed Steps #2 and #4.
We don’t have to worry about Step #3 because Novell automatically
authenticates you into the XP workstation. Keep in mind that the text
assumes that we’re working with Windows 2000 workstations, but
we’re using XP. Most of the workstation assignments will be slightly
different. When you get the message about changing the password,
select cancel, and then proceed with the text instructions for changing
passwords. Record the Password Policy:
Complete the remainder of the steps with the following exception: at
Step #5 – f, click Start, Shutdown and restart the workstation. Then
proceed to Step #6 to test your password.
Activity 1-2: Changing the Windows 2000 User Password – page 10
Read but don’t perform.
Activity 1-3: Using Message Services – page 11
Send a message to a classmate or to yourself if you are working on
your own. Follow steps to #7, then select your classmate’s (or your
own) ‘XXadmin’ account from the list, substituting XX with the
appropriate two digit number. If there are multiple instances of your
admin account, choose the one with the asterisk (*). That represents
the actual account. Any additional entries represent authentications to
other services and you’ll get an error if you select them. Send back a
reply.
What information is displayed in the Send Message Results’ window?

Activity 1-4: Viewing eDirectory Information – page 13
Follow the steps as given, paying close attention to Step #2 as you log
in as Kari Means. At Step 2d, scroll to the bottom to locate the UAS
container, double click it and then select the Engineering container.
Remember at Step 2f, the UASHOST server is also located in the UAS
container at the bottom of the list.
It may take a couple of minutes, but Novell Delivered Apps should
display automatically after you have logged in (step 4). Double click
‘User Information’ and wait for Console One to open.
What is ConsoleOne?

In ConsoleOne, the navigation frame is on the left and the object
frame is on the right. This is similar to Windows Explorer or My
Computer.
Step #5: Follow the instructions to locate the Engineering container.

department user?
Activity 1-5: Working with Drive Mappings – page 15
Begin at Step #5. At Step #7d, click the + to the left of UAS_TREE,
