To start provisioning, do one of the following:
From the terminal, run the /opt/novell/xad/sbin/provision_dsfw.sh script.
Launch YaST. The DSfW Provisioning Wizard is listed as an option.
To authenticate, enter the password of the current domain, the parent domain, and the tree/container admin.
For more details on Provisioning, see Provisioning Domain Services for Windows
The DSfW server is now ready for use. Verify that eDirectory and DSfW have been installed and configured correctly by executing the instructions in Section 8.0, Activities After DSfW Installation or Provisioning.

if you want the machine being configured to function as a DNS server.IMPORTANT:If you want to configure DNS on an additional domain controller in a domain that already has a parent or a child domain, you must ensure that the additional domain controller’s DNS server and the parent or child domain's DNS server act as passive primary DNS server for each other's zones. This ensures that the additional domain controller is resolved from a parent or child domain's DNS server and the parent or child domain is resolved from the additional domain controller.
Also, make sure you configure the forward lookup zone and the reverse lookup zone for this DNS server. For more information, see Zone Management
in the OES 2 SP3: Novell DNS/DHCP Administration Guide.
