Is there anyway to simulate a windows domain in netware. I want to do something like this so that my users can login to differnet workstations without me needing to setup local logins for each user and getting their passwords all messed up.
 
Dynamic Local User is similar to Roaming Profiles on Win.
 
How would you set them up?
 
DLU is part of ZENworks. I don't want to contradict what LawnBoy said, but it's not really like Roaming Profiles.. Really it works more like if you did have a Domain Login without roaming profiles. What it does is uses the Novell login to create a local account automatically. Your users only have one login -- they never see a 2nd one like they do now. But if you login to multiple machines, you'll get new profiles on each one.

You could use Roaming Profiles along with DLU if you do need that capability. Use Zen to control Group Policies and setup the roaming. I personally hate roaming profiles but I guess they have their place.
