Introducing Netscape Console and Administration Server
23
Administration Server executes programs that perform the requested tasks. For
example, Administration Server can execute programs to modify the server and
application settings that are stored in the configuration directory or to change the
port number that a server listens to.
When you use Netscape Console to add or edit user entries, it sends Lightweight
Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) messages directly to Directory Server. The
information in these messages is then stored in the user directory. Figure 1-2
illustrates the system.
Figure 1-2
A Simple System With Netscape Console
Figure 1-2 shows an example of a relatively simple system. As your enterprise
grows and your needs change, you have the flexibility to add additional hosts and
servers. Even when you install new hardware and software, you can continue to
use a single instance of Netscape Console to manage your network. Figure 1-3
shows how a complex system might be organized.
