NOTE********: THESE DIRECTIONS ARE NOT APPLICABLE FOR NDS eDIRECTORY / CORPORATE EDITION. SEE TID #10052680 - Forcing NDS Edirectory off of Solaris FOR HELP WITH THESE PRODUCTS.********

The primary method for removing eDirectory 8.5 or Account Management 2.1 is to run the "nds-uninstall" script which can be found either on the product CD or in the /usr/sbin directory. This script file will check for all installed products and will help you remove them. The script should remove products that have corrupted or that were not completely installed as well. If the nds-uninstall shell script fails to remove the product completely, call Novell Technical Support for further assistance.

Once the product has been removed, make sure that all applicable objects have been removed from NDS as well. This includes LDAP, Security, Server, Workstation, and UNIX Config objects.
