The self-signed certificate that resides in the Organizational CA is the same as the Trusted Root
certificate in a Server Certificate object that has a certificate signed by the Organizational CA. Any
service that recognizes the Organizational CA’s self-signed certificate as a trusted root will accept a
valid user or server certificate signed by the Organizational CA.

2.8 Synchronizing Network Time
Time synchronization is a service that maintains consistent server time across the network. Time
synchronization is provided by the server operating system, not by eDirectory. eDirectory maintains
its own internal time to ensure the proper order of eDirectory SP3 packets, but it gets its time from
the server operating system.
This section focuses on integrating NetWare time synchronization with that of Windows, Linux,
Solaris, and AIX.
2.8.1 Synchronizing Time on NetWare Servers
In IP networks and mixed protocol networks, NetWare 5 servers communicate time with other
servers using IP. NetWare 5 servers use timesync.nlm and Network Time Protocol (NTP) to
accomplish this.
Time synchronization in NetWare 5 and 6 always uses timesync.nlm, whether servers are using IP
only, IPX
TM
only, or both protocols. Timesync.nlm loads when a server is installed. NTP can be
configured through timesync.nlm.
If your network also uses Windows, Linux, Solaris, or AIX, you should use NTP to synchronize the
servers because it is a standard to provide time synchronization.
For NetWare 3 and NetWare 4, third-party NTP time services are available.
For more information on time synchronization software, see
The Network Time Protocol (http://
www.ntp.org)
Web site.
