SUMMARY

This article describes a documentation error in the Install.doc file included with Services for UNIX 2.0.

MORE INFORMATION

The following incorrect statement is displayed in the Install.doc file:

Password Synchronization must be installed on a Windows domain controller.

This text is incorrect and should read as follows:

For domain passwords, password synchronization must be installed on Windows domain controllers. Otherwise, it will synchronize passwords of local users.

You can use Password Synchronization to synchronize either domain or local passwords. If you want to synchronize passwords for domain accounts, install Password Synchronization on all domain controllers. However, if you want to synchronize only a single local database, you only need to install Password Synchronization on the single authorizing Windows NT-based server.
