Environment


Novell BorderManager 3.9

Situation

Installing Novell borderManager 3.9, almost at the end of the installation, server will abend, but the install said it was done. After reboot server and went into IManager to configure my Site-to-Site VPN. It gave an error that I was not logged in as the correct user (I was logged in as admin) or that the schema was not extended.

Additional Information:
The NetWare OS detected a problem with the system while executing a process owned by SERVER.NLM. It may be the source of the problem or there may have been a memory corruption.

Resolution

Fixed in bm39sp1 support pack

Additional Information

As a workaround, edit the file sys:system\schema\vpnsch.ics with notepad or wordpad and look at the begging of the file for this values:

SetVar AdName, "adm.novell"
SetVar Password, "test"

Replace then with the right values for your server:

SetVar AdName, "admin name and context"
SetVar Password, "password"

Save the file and at system console run:
sys:system\schema\vpnextnd.ncf

That will extend the schema and will allow to configure the vpn in iManager. No need to reinstall NBM 3.9
