Hello All,

OK this may be a bit longer than normal but need to explain all.

I have 3 Test servers I am working with they are as follows:

1 DELL PowerEdge Server
NW6SP4e
Java 1.4.2SP1
EDIR 8.7.3
Zenworks 3.2 w all patches
Main Tree for our district

2 School Server 1
NW6SP4e
Java 1.4.2sp1
Edir 8.7.3
Installed in its own context for the High School

3 School Server 2
NW6SP4e
JAVA 1.4.2sp1
eDir 8.7.3
Installed in its own context for our Junior High/Middle School

Now when I created the tree with the Dell machine it allowed me to install not only all the patches but I was also able to install Zenworks and all the components to it.

As I installed the First server into its own context for the first school (High School), I then proceeded to try to install the Zenworks CD but it will not see the High School Server just the main tree server. Some of my questions on this are:

1. If I have Zenworks installed into the main tree do I need to still install it to each server that I will install into each OU or does having it installed into the tree take care of that?

2. If I have to install it to each server do I then need to log in to each server and install it each time like I did with the Tree server?

I don't know if this is a netware question, a Zenworks question or both??

The installation of the leaf server seemed to go fine along with the server updates, but the Zenworks install has me confused...

I will also post this in the Netware 6 forum as well.

Please if anyone can help with this it would be appreciated. School will be out in a month and I am testing this on my own and even though I still have time I want to redo the installs at least 3 to 4 times to ensure that when I do redo our network from 6 trees to 1 tree that it is done right the first time. I welcome all comments and help. If any more information is needed I will be glad to offer it.

Thank you for your time...
