This document defines three new DHCP options for delivering
configuration information to clients of the Novell Directory
Services. The first option carries a list of NDS servers. The second
option carries the name of the client's NDS tree. The third carries
the initial NDS context. These three options provide an NDS client
with enough information to connect to an NDS tree without manual
configuration of the client.

This document has been reviewed by the Dynamic Hosts Configuration
(dhc) Working Group of the IETF.

This is now a Proposed Standard Protocol.
