What This Course CoversBasic Installation And ConfigurationThe main goal of this course is to teach you how to install Netscape's Messaging Server version 4.0 in a sandbox environment. The term "sandbox environment" refers to a test system functioning in a non-critical role. Your sandbox environment should be an actual working system that you can afford to make mistakes on. This could be your own personal desktop system or a machine in an testing lab or classroom. General ConceptsThe other goal of this course is to provide you with a high level overview of messaging services in general and Netscape's Messaging Server version 4.0 in particular. Hopefully you'll achieve some level of conversational familiarity with this type of software and be able to speak intelligently about Netscape's entry in this category. Routine Server AdministrationWe'll cover some of the common administrative tasks associated with the Server such as making backups. Some of these tasks fall under the category of System Administration; others are more like "content management" tasks or database administration. |
