DCEsetup is a tool that provides an easy-to-use graphical interface for configuring DCE services on your Windows system. With DCEsetup, you can configure the following DCE components:
· DCE Cell Directory Service (CDS), including:
- Name Service Interface Gateway
- Global Directory Agent (GDA)
· Distributed Time Service (DTS)
DCEsetup can configure these components so that your Windows NT or Windows 2000 system can function as a:
· CDS read-only replica server
· Security read-only replica server
When you configure a system as a server, you automatically configure DCE client services on that system as well.
Many of the text entry fields that you will encounter during configuration have default values associated with them. These default values are based on your existing configuration, if you have one. Otherwise, DCEsetup provides values that are appropriate for the most common DCE configurations.
You must be logged in as a member of the Windows Administrators Group to perform a DCE configuration or make changes to a configuration.
