===IBM JRE 5===

ConsoleOne requires IBM JRE 5 Update 11 or later.

It is not available standalone from IBM apparently, however Oracle has several version of the Java Runtime Environment [http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javasebusiness/downloads/java-archive-downloads-javase5-419410.html]

Download rpm.bin and follow these instructions [http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/install-linux-64-rpm-138254.html]

 <code>
 chmod a+x jre-1_5_0_22-linux-amd64.rpm.bin
 ./jre-1_5_0_22-linux-amd64.rpm
</code>

then install .rpm

==eDirectory==
Novell's version of Active Directory

===prerequisites===
*SLP
*multicast routing
*network time protocol (NTP) set
*static IP address

===multicast routing===
To check if the host is enabled for multicast routing, enter the following command:

 /bin/netstat -nr

The following entry should be present in the routing table:

 224.0.0.0 0.0.0.0

If the entry is not present, log in as root and enter the following command to enable multicast
routing:

 route add -net 224.0.0.0 netmask 240.0.0.0 dev ''interface''

The ''interface'' could be a value such as eth0, hme0, hme1, or hme2, depending on the NIC that is
installed and used.

Install from .iso 

Configure using:
<code>
 cd /opt/novell/eDirectory/bin
 ./ndsconfig new -t gw12-tree -n gwava -a admin.gwava -S gw12server
</code>

==ConsoleOne==

The Linux host enabled for multicast routing. To check if the host is enabled for multicast routing, enter the following command:

 /bin/netstat -nr

The following entry should be present in the routing table:

 224.0.0.0 0.0.0.0

If the entry is not present, log in as root and enter the following command to enable multicast routing: 

 route add -net 224.0.0.0 netmask 240.0.0.0 dev interface

Install from GroupWise2012 .iso

It asks about installing a JRE so I wonder if I needed the above one.

==GroupWise 2012==

Run installer from .iso.

Double click ConsoleOne icon on desktop to start the program.

Login using credentials from eDirectory above.
