Logon server setup

When iSeries NetServer™ starts up as a Logon server, the following actions are taken in addition to normal startup:

A check is done for the existence of the NETLOGON share. If this share does not exist, then a directory is created (/QIBM/UserData/OS400/NetServer/NetLogon) and shared as NETLOGON with read-only access. Logon Scripts, system policies, and default user profiles can be placed in this directory.
iSeries NetServer registers and begins listening on the following TCP/IP NetBIOS names: __MSBROWSE__<01>, domain<1E>, domain<1C>, domain<1B>, domain<1D>, domain server<00>, server<20>

From a Windows DOS prompt, issuing nbtstat -a server_name will list these registered names. If WINS is configured for iSeries NetServer, then these names are also registered with WINS. If there is a conflict (meaning some other computer already holds one of the unique domain names), then only that particular service does not start and CPIB687 (RC=2) message is sent to QSYSOPR describing the conflict. See the iSeries NetServer web page Link outside Information Center for more information on this error message.
