 +  nimol_config -d /mnt/aix -t /export/aix -L aix530
 +
 +To configure the NIMOL server and copy resources without configuring syslog and without globally exporting the resource label directory, type:
 +  nimol_config -S -e

 +
 +To setup client myclient and not have it remain a client to the NIMOL server after the installation,​ type:
 +  nimol_install -n -c myclient -g 192.168.1.1 -m 00:​60:​08:​3F:​E8:​DF -s 255.255.255.0 -L aix530
