administrative domain.
The Network Directory Services database stores “objects” in a tree

Objects, such as users, servers, server volumes, print servers, print
queues, etc., can be placed anywhere within the tree structure. The
whole tree structure is shared by all servers using the same tree.
Changing a setting in the tree affects all servers, making it less
necessary to manage servers individually.
For compatibility with existing NetWare 3.x clients and servers,
NetWare 4.x provides Bindery emulation, which exposes objects in
the server’s context as Bindery objects.
