bindery
<networking> A {Novell Netware} database that contains
definitions for entities such as users, groups, and
{workgroups}. The bindery allows the network supervisor to
design an organised and secure operating environment based on
the individual requirements of each of these entities.
The bindery has three components: objects, properties, and
property data sets. Objects represent any physical or logical
entity, including users, user groups, file servers.
Properties are characteristics of each object (e.g.
passwords, account restrictions, {internetwork addresses}).
Property data sets are the values assigned to an entity's
bindery properties.
