`Introduction
`
`Novell recently released version 2.5 of the NetWare Web Server and is including ~ w~h every copy of NetVVare 4.11 ("Green
`River"). The Web Server has also been bundled with a number of related tools to form a product called NovelllnnerWeb
`Publisher. This product is designed to give you everything you need to turn your existing NetVVare network into an Intranet.
`Whereas my previous two AppNotes dean wnh just the NetWare Web Server (version 2.0), I thought it would be useful to wa~
`until the release of version 2.5 and the lnnerWeb Publisher to continue the series. This way I can cover the other components
`included in lnnerWeb Publisher and show how they can be used along with the NetVVare Web Server to create a complete
`innerweb solution.
`
`Parts 1 and 2 of this s.eries provided a foundational overview of setting up a web environment, covering such topics as installing
`and configuring the web server, using graphics, and writing simple scripts. (See "Exploring the NetVVare Web Server" in the
`February 1996 issue and "Exploring the NetWare Web Server: Part 2" in the March 1996 issue of NoveHAppUcation Notes.)
`
`The outline for this third AppNote is as follows:
`
`Introduce the components of lnnerWeb Publisher, highlighting the new features in the NetWare Web Server version 2.5.
`
`Discuss some additional concepts relating to the use of NetVVare Web Server in an innerweb environment, specifically
`in regards to integration with the NetVVare operating system and services.
`
`Pull everything together by describing an example web site that demonstrates many of the ideas presented in all three
`AppNotes. You can download all of the sample files from the Systems Engineering Web Server at
`http:J/137.65.96.136:11111 .
`
`This AppNote is geared toward system administrators and "webmasters" who are looking for ideas on how to effectively
`Integrate an internal web environment into their existing NetVVare network.
`
`Before proceeding, let me clarify my use of the terms "innerweb" and "Intranet". Both words describe the same thing: a LAN that
`uses Internet protocols, such as HTTP (HyperText Transfer Protocol), to serve data. LAN clients receive data via an HTML
`(HyperText Markup Language) browser such as Netscape or Mosaic. I prefer the term "innerweb" to "Intranet" because it's
`less likely to be confused with the word "internet"--especiaHy in conversation.
`
`Introducing Novelll_n_ne_r_w_e_b_ P_ ub_l_is_h_e_r _________________________ _
`
`Novelllnnerweb Publisher provides tools to help you create and publish HTML documents on an innerweb or on the Internet.
`The package includes:
`·
`
`NetWare Web Server 2.5
`
`NetWare 4.1 Runtime
`
`Netscape Navigator 2.01 (50-user license)
`
`Soflquad's HoT MetaL Lite (5-user license)
`
`QuarterDeck's I-Ware Lite, an IP-IPX Gateway (1 -server license)
`
`For more information on NetWare Web Server performance, see "NetWare on One Server Outperforms Wndows NT on
`Four CPUs" in the June 1996 is sue. and benchmark results from Shiloh Consulting at http://www.novell.com/.
`
`NetWare Web Server 2.5
`
`This second release of the NetWare Web Server has been optimized to take advantage of NetWare's superior file service
`engine. Besides being an ultra-fast HTTP server, version 2.5 supports the OS/2 name space, which means it now supports the
`downloading of Java applets. II runs as a NetVVare Loadable Module (NLM) under the NetWare 4.1 operating system.
`
`Another key feature of NetVVare Web Server 2.5 is its ability to browse Novell Directory Services (NOS) objects through any
`World Wde Web browser. A user can explore an organization's NOS tree and its objects from any innerweb or Internet
`connection, using the standard Web browser interface. We'll discuss this capability in more detail later in this AppNote. For now,

`
`suffice it to say that this is the first step in integrating Novelrs Directory with the World \Mde Web. Future plans call for an NDS(cid:173)
`to-LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol)· gateway, which will permit NOS users to perform directory functions on
`another directory service.
`
`NetWare 4.1 Runtime
`
`The NetWare Web Server software can be installed on any existing NetWare 4.1 server. But in case you want to create a
`dedicated innerweb server, lnnerWeb Publisher includes a runtime version of NetWare 4.1. This is a fully operational, two-user
`version of NetWare that acts as the base operating system for your innerweb server. The two-user license only applies to
`users actually logging in to the file server using NetWare Core Protocols (NCPs); you can have an un6mited number of users
`accessing the Web Server via HTTP.
`
`HoTMetaL Light
`
`SoftQuad's HoTMetaL Light is a web authoring toot that lets you create HTML documents
`without having to know all of those esoteric HTML commands. It supports the HTML 2.0 spec~ication, as well as many of the
`advanced HTML 3.0 and Netscape extensions. lnnerWeb Publisher includes both the 16-bit and 32-bit versions of HoT MetaL
`Light so you can run ft on \Mndows 3.1, \Mndows 95, or \Mndows NT workstations. I'll explain more about HoT MetaL when I
`discuss the example web site.
`
`Quarterdeck IWare Lite

`I Ware
`IP{IPX
`
`!Ware is an IP-IPX Gateway that converts IPX packets Into IP packets , and vice versa. It
`resolves a prob1em many system administrators are facing as they expand· their LANs into intranets. Most NetWare networks
`use IPX as the standard protocol. However, you need TCP/IP to access web servers, and TCPIIP is more dMICult to administer
`and maintain than IPX. The solution is to use an IP-IPX gateway to eliminate the need for TCP/I P to ever reach the LAN.
`
`!Ware has both a client and a server component. On NetWare workstations, the IWare Client translates TCPIIP packets
`generated by a web browser into IPX packets . When these IPX packets arrive at the NetWare Web Server, the !Ware Server
`component (running as an NLM) converts them back into TCP/IP. From there, the packets are sent to the appropriate Web
`server, either within your own intranet or out on the pubtic Internet (see Figure 1).
`
`Figure 1: /ware acts as an IPX-to·IP gateway, translating IPX packets into TCP!IP packets to be sent to the appropriate web
`server, and vice versa.
`
`0 ini"M
`
`•
`
`IWare eliminates the need to install a TCPIIP stack on every client. Only one TCPIIP address Is needed for the NetWare 4.1
`server running the NetWare Web Server and the IWare Server component. Of course, you can continue to use TCPIIP on your
`workstations if you already have TCPIIP stacks loaded on them. \Mth NovelllnnerWeb Publisher, you can have any mixture of
`IPX and TCPIIP workstations on your intranet.
`
`Since TCPIIP packets are only forwarded to those clients which requested the data, IWare also acts as a "firewall" to the
`external Internet. Hackers cannot explore a LAN that uses !Ware as its TCP/IP router.
`
`N etscape N a vigator
`
`Nets cape is the leading web browser on the market. lnnerWeb Publisher comes with a 50-
`user license for Netscape Navigator version ix, which supports Java and JavaScript, as well as a variety of enhancements to
`HTML that make web pages better looking. Netscape's plug-in architecture allows third-party vendors to create modules which
`provides extra functionaHty, such as displaying animation and playing real-time audio within the browser.
`
`Most of the time and money expended on a web site goes toward keeping it operational and current. The ultimate goal of any
`web site is to have as many web pages as possible linked to real-time sources where content is updated automatically . Today ,
`the amount of true automation that you can implement is limited. unless you use sophisticated back-end database links and
`clever scripting. In the near future, technologies such as Java promise to make real-time information easier to provide in the
`web environment.
`
`Another goal for a web site is to provide links to existing data. Imagine being able to design an HTML document that integrates
`data residing on other NetWare servers, and that only allows access~ the user who requests the data has rights to that data.

`
`Expanding on this concept, wouldn't ft be great if the links to the network data were dynamic, so that the underlying HTML
`document rarely needed to be updated?
`
`These types of implementations are possible with the NetWare Web Server, thanks to its ability to integrate with NetWare.
`Details on these and other concepts are provided in this section. Keep In mind, howev er, that some of the foftowing ideas are
`applicable only to innerweb env~onments, or to global internetwork solutions that route NOS services acro ss a WAN.
`
`Browsing NOS
`
`Wny would someone want to browse NOS objects? One big reason is that NOS is a real-time database that is the source of
`nearly all network information. Up-to-date user information such as phone numbers, addresses, and even photographs are
`available to anyone with a browser. No separate database Is necessary.
`
`Another attraction of this NOS browsing feature is the ability to explore any object. Suppose you have set up a network printer
`and named it "Printer1". Users who want to print to that printer have no indication from the name as to the printer's location. But
`W you were to store a GIF file representing a floor plan as part of the printer's object in NOS, users could browse the object to
`discover fts location (see Figure 2).
`
`Figure 2: The NetWare Web Server aHows you to store information about an object in NOS and then access that information
`from a standard web browser.

`
`Wth the VVEB_SNAP.OLL snap-in to the NWAdmin utility, you can store such things as photographs and home pages in NOS.
`The snap-in automatically extends the NOS schema to allow for the extra properties .
`
`Incorporating NetWare Filenames in a URL
`
`Suppose you are the network administrator for a department that has three NetWare fde servers. You want to implement a web
`server so that people in other departments can easily find and access your data. But you don't want just anyone looking at your
`department's files --only those who have rights to do so. NetWare's file system security will take care of the access control. but
`how do you point a web browser to files that exist on different NetWare servers?
`
`To answer this question, let's look at the structure of a UnWorm Resource Locator (URL), as illustrated in Figure 3.
`
`Figure 3: A URL is nothing more than a way to request a particular file on a host server.

`
`Basically , a URL is just a fancy way of asking for data. It's not much different than asking for a file on a network drive. In DOS,
`a similar request looks like this:
`
`drive:\directory\filename (for example, F: \PUBLIC\EDLIN . COM)
`
`Using the Universal Naming Convention (UNC), a filename looks like this:
`
`//server/volume/directory/filename
`
`So in UNC. the name of a file in my home directory might be

`
`The FILE Protocol. You can encapsulate a UNC name within a URL, but to do so the URL requires a special "protocol" called
`FILE. The syntax for using FILE is similar to using HTTP, FTP (File Transfer Protocol), Gopher, and Usenet V'vhen the FILE
`protocol is used, the browser looks for a file or directory on a local or network file system.
`
`Here Is an example of a URL that points to an HTML file on the network :
`
`ile://1/skime/sys/alan/projects/current.htm
`
`where "skime" is the server name and "sys" is the SYS volume.
`
`A file reference within an HTML document might look like this :
`
`<a href="file:/1//skime/sys/alan/projects/current.htm"<<
`For current projects , click here .</a<
`
`This syntax is valid for a Wndows 95 or Wndows 3.x workstation running the NetWare Client 32 client software and Netscape
`v2.x. If the client is authenticated to the NOS tree, it will auto-connect to the file server. You do not have to map a drive prior to
`making the URL request
`
`For a Wndows 3.x workstation running the NetWare DOS Requester (VLM) client software, the URllooks like this :
`
`ile:///FI/alan/projects/current.htm
`
`where Fl indicates drive F. In this case, a drive mapping is required prior to the URL request
`
`Supporting Multiple Desktop Operating Systems. For other types of NetWare clients besides DOS/\Mndows, the proper
`URL syntax is determined by how the desktop operating system interprets the server and volume name. For instance, on my
`Macintosh the URL for the file referenced above looks like this:
`
`file:///SKIME.SYS/ALAN/PROJECTS/CURRENT.HTM
`
`In the MacOS, server and volume names are combined into one desktop reference ("skime.sys"). Note also that the r;e iS only
`accessible W the user is currently attached and authenticated to file server Skime.
`
`For non-DOS filenames, spaces and non-standard characters are converted to their hexadecimal equivalents (for example,
`"%20" for space). For example, when I choose the "Open file ... " option in my Macintosh web browser and select a local file, the
`URL is displayed as follows :
`
`ile:///Macintosh%26HD/Data/Novell%26%C4/NOVLOG1.GIF
`
`Since many people find this extra clutter confusing, H's best to use only numbers and letters for file and directory names.
`
`V'vhen supporting diverse desktop operating systems, you may need to provide muttiple references to the same physical
`location. lnftial HTTP requests to the server would include the browser type and client OS, found in the environment variable
`HTTP _USER_AG ENT. For example:
`
`HTTP_USER_AGENT = Mozilla/2.02 (Macintosh; I; PPC)
`
`A script could then return a properly-syntaxed URL corres ponding to the client platform detected in this environment variable.
`Here is a slice of Peri code that would perform this function :
`
`$user_agent = "$ENV{'HTTP_USE R_AGENT}";
`
`if ($user_agent
`
`/Mozilla/ ) {
`
`#** Netscape
`
`if ($user_agent =~/Macintosh/)
`
`#* * using Macintosh **
`
`$url = "file:///SK I ME.SYS/ALAN/PROJECTS/CURR ENT . HTM";
`
`elsif ($user_agent = ~ /Win16/)
`
`#** using Windows 3. 1**
`
`url$ = "file:///FI/alan/projects/current.htm";
`
`elsif ($user_agent =- /Win32/)
`
`#** using Windows 95**

`
`$url
`
`"f ile:/1//skime/sys/alan/projects/current.htm";
`
`Unfortunately. it is impossible to automatically determine network client she I information (VLM or Cfient32) from an HTTP
`request. The method shown above only works if you know that all workstation types are running the same NetWare client
`software; for instance, that all Wndows 3.1 workstations are running the VLM client.
`
`Using Directory Map Objects for Dynamic Links
`
`One of the biggest headaches in maintaining a web sne is making sure that hypertext links--those references that specify other
`documents or locations --are valid. V'vtlen the document referenced by a hypertext fink is moved or deleted, you see this all-too(cid:173)
`fam~lar error message:
`
`404 Not Found The requested URL /LONGF/LO.HTM was not found on this server.
`
`Changes to hypertext links affect browser bookmarks, scripts, and HTML files . In other words, they affect users and
`administrators alike.
`
`Since NOS is a real-time database, ij lends itseW well to storing key link information. In fact, NOS already provides an object that
`fits the bill quite nicely: the Directory Map object.
`
`Background on Directory Maps. Directory Map objects have been around since the release of NetWare 4.0 in 1993. The
`purpose of these objects is to store pointers to directories on any server on the network, and allow names to refer to server
`directories. Directory Maps are normally used in login scripts, batch files, and MAP commands . They use simple names instead
`of whole paths. For example, using a Directory Map object, the MAP command
`
`IMAP J:=APPSERVER/APPS:WORDPROC/WPGe
`
`becomes
`
`IMAP J :=WORDPERFECT
`
`This simplified MAP command is then placed in users' login scripts and batch files. V'vtlen the site upgrades from WordPerfect
`6.0 to 6.1, all the administrator has to do is update the Directory Map object to point to
`"APPSERVER/APPS:WORDPROCMP61". No changes need to be made to the users' login scripts or batch fffes. Best of all,
`the users don't have to know the directory structure on the server.
`
`Using Directory Maps for URls. Applying this concept to the web, a Directory Map object can be referenced as a URL. That
`way, whenever a reference changes, you only need to update one object in NOS. The syntax is:
`
`rile:////tree/Org/OU/DMap
`
`where treeis the NOS tree name, Orgis the Organization, OU is the Organization Unij, and DMap is the Directory Map object
`name. For example, to reference fdes in the •wordperfect" directory on an application server, the URL might be:
`
`file://1/oak/skigreat/downhillers/wordperfect
`
`Note: This syntax is valid only for Wndows 95 or Wndows 3.xworkstations running NetWare Cient 32 and Netscape v2.x.
`
`Remember that the referenced data is only accessible if the user is currently authenticated to tree "oak" and to server
`"appserver." There is no need to have a drive mapped to the server.
`
`Another advantage to using NOS Directory Map objects as web references is that you can authorize specific users to change
`those objects without giving them rights to change the base web documents (which should be controlled by the web
`administrator). This scenario also relieves the web administrator from having to manage those references.
`
`To have a user control a Directory Map, simply make the user a trustee of the object with property rights RV'£ (read, wrne,
`compare) to the Path property . If you grant the user Supervisor rights, he or she will be able to delete the Directory Map object.
`
`Note: Currently , the URL syntax requires using the FILE protocoi.Therefore, you cannot specify scripts or Server Side
`Includes (SSis)as· documents. In the future. complete URLs will be stored in NOS sothat any location or document type can
`be referenced.
`
`Enabling NOS Browsing
`
`\Mth the NetWare Web Server, the NOS browsing capability is turned off by default. You enable it by launching the WEBMGR
`utifity, specifying which server to access, and clicking on the "Enable NOS browsing" button. A tine is created in the
`SYS:WEB/CONFIG/SRM.CFGfile that reads:
`
`LoadableModule /nds/ sys:web/docs/cgi/ndsobj/ndsobj.nlm
`
`You must restart the HTTP process in order for the changes to take effect.
`
`To store images and home pages in NOS. the NWAdmin utility must load WEB_SNAP.DLL when it starts. This is done by
`adding a line in the NWADMIN.INI file that looks something like this (depending on where the DLL was installed):
`
`Object DL Ls]
`ebsnap = c:\netware\web_snap .dll

`
`The first time you load NWAdmin with the snap-in, a dialog box appears asking if you want to extend the schema to support the
`additional properties as sociated with NDS browsing. Clicking "OK" extends the schema. (Once the schema is extended , the
`added properties cannot be removed.)
`
`Storing Images with an NDS Object. Once NDS Browsing is enabled and the schema is extended, you can store images
`and other helpful information as part of your NDS objects . As an example, here is how to store a reference to a user home page
`and a photograph (saved as a JPEG file) in a person's NDS User object.
`
`1. In NWAdmin, select a user by double-clicking on the User object.
`
`2. Scroll down in the list of configuration pages at the right until you see the "Home Page and Photo Attributes" tab. Click
`on it to open a page similar to the one shown in Figure 4.
`
`Figure 4: In NWAdmln, you can specify a home page and a photo for NOS User objects.

`3. C6ck on "Select HTML file" to store a web page reference in NDS. Any references within this HTML file must be a
`complete URL wah the full path. In other )YOrds, you can't use relative references (specifying a filename wah no path).
`For example, ~you wanted to include a banner image in the HTML file, you would specify tt like this :
`~img src = "/images/banner.gif"<
`
`where the "images" directory is located under sys:webldocs on the webserver.
`
`You can also specify images from a user's home web directory like this :
`
`~img src = "/-username/graphic .gif"<
`
`4. CUck on "Select Photo" to store an image in NDS. Type the full path and filename in the "GIF F~e Name" field. Although
`the defautt file type is GIF, you can store another graphic type such as JPEG.
`
`Now when your innerweb users browse an NDS user, an initial screen wiM be displayed showing key user properties and the
`user photo. along with a link to the user's NDS home page. Detailed user information is available when another icon is clicked
`(see Figure 5).
`
`Figure 5: When an NOS User object is browsed, an initial screen such as this one is displayed.

`
`The NetWare Web Server also provides a way to directly access NOS objects and properties . For example, the URL lo read a
`user's home page stored In NOS is:
`
`http://webserver/nds/tree/Org/OU/User?OP=Read&ATTR=Home_Page
`
`Refer to the NetWare Web Server documentation for more details on this syntax,
`
`User Home Pages
`
`As discussed in Part 1, users can create customized home pages and store them In their home directories. 'Mth this new
`release of the NetWare Web Server, you can choose to store the user's main home page in NOS rather than in the user's home
`directory, The advantage of using NOS Is that the home page can be referenced by any web server on the network. The
`disadvantage is that the user must use NWAdmin to upload the HTML file to NOS. However, if few changes are made to the
`main page, that's not much of a worry.
`
`The standard way to access a user home page is to specilly the URL using the following syntax:
`
`tTTP:/Jservername/~username
`
`User home web directories can also be referenced by an Alias object. For example, ff the object named "GreatOne" is an alias
`of User object "Alan," the home web directory can be specified by either HTTP://servemame/-alan or
`HTTP://servemame/-greatone.
`
`Note: Remember that, to access a user's home web directory via HTTP, theNetWare Web Server software must be installed
`on that server.
`
`Here's a final tip: If you have a dedicated web server and you want to support user home pages, consider applying space
`limitations for each user. Most online services restrict the size of user data areas, and NetWare can do the same via the
`NWAdmin utility (see Figure 6).
`
`Figure 6: Set volume space restrictions in NWAdm/n to limit how much disk space users can use.

`
`Space restrictions are set by volume. Currently, a home web directory can be separate from a normal home directory only if
`the web server is in a different NDS tree. (This lim~ation will be removed in a future release.)
`
`Setting Up the lnnerweb Environment
`
`Before we look at out example web site, let's review the basic steps necessary for setting up an innerweb environment. You
`can us e this as a checklist to ensure that your own site is ready. For more detail, refer to the NetWare Web Server
`documentation.
`
`1. Verify that the server has enough RAM and disk space to accommodate the increased demand for data. If this server
`will be heavily used, install high-speed LAN and disk adapters. Remember that each HTTP client can establish several
`(usually up to four) slmu~aneous connecllons to the server.
`
`2. Install TCPnP support on the serYer. Use the INETCFG.NLM utility for menu-driven operations .
`
`3. Install the OS/2 (HPFS) name space support for long filenames . This willslighlly increase server memory and storage
`requirements, but~ will allow for a more flexible file naming system. \Mth long file name support loaded, files must be
`referenced by their long names (if they have one). Be aware that not all WWWtools or script interpreters support long
`file names, whereas others (such as Java applels) require them.
`
`4. If data will be accessed from the web server using the FILE protocol, the server must have sufficient user licenses,
`and the users must be authenticated to NDS before data is reques ted . (Standard HTTP requests do not take up any
`NetWare user connections. You simply need to ensure that your servers can be accessed via IPX and TCPnP
`throughout the LAN and WAN.)
`
`5. Install the NetWare Web Server software. (Basic guidelines are given In "Exploring the NetWare Web Server" In the
`February 1996 issue. For more detailed information, refer to the Novell product documentation.)
`
`6. From any browser, verify that the web software is working by accessing HTML documents. Execute the sample Peri
`scripts and Server Side Include documents as well.
`
`7. If needed, change the default settings for authorization and processing via the Web Server Administration utility
`(V\£BMGR).
`
`One change we'll need for the example is to enable SSI on all directories. You dO this in V\£BMGR by selecting the
`DOCS directory and clicking on "Enable Includes" (see Figure 7) . This enables SSIIo work for any file with a .SSI
`extension in a directory under /WEB/DOCS. II also allows SSI in our home page, which is especially useful for things
`like page hit counters .
`
`8. Enable user home pages. This is done by clicking "Enable user documents" under the Server tab in WEBMGR .
`
`9. If desired, edit the options in the SYS:WEB/CONFIG/SRM.CFG file .
`
`For instance, to change the default horne page document name from INDEX.HTM to INDEX.SSI, modify the Directory
`Index entry to read:
`
`~irectoryindex index.s~i
`
`10. Extend the NDS schema to include HTML documents and images as user properties . V\£B_SNAP.DLL does this the
`firs t time~ is loaded, asexptained earlier in this AppNote.
`
`Figure 7: The "Enable includes " option in WEBMG R enables Server Side Includes.

`
`Example: Alan's Exotic Travel Company
`
`-
`
`--=·
`
`You can download this entire example, including scripts, images, and HTML documents, from Novelfs VWWVserver at
`http://yfflw.noveft.com/.
`
`This innerweb example is based on an in-house travel service. Alan's Exotic Travel Company (TraveiCo) is a subsidiary that
`serves the needs of a medium-sized organization. Its customers are the company's employees. In addition to arranging all
`business travel, TraveiCo generates extra revenue by selling exotic trips to the employees. T hus they want to increase
`employee awareness of this lesser-known personal travel service.
`
`TraveiCo already has several NetWare 4.1 serv ers that are used for different purposes . The most important of these is the
`master travel database which stores all employee travel information, such as travel histories and frequent flyer preferences.
`
`TraveiCo has identified five main reasons for wanting to create an innerweb site:
`
`1. To disseminate information regarding exotic travel journeys, using attractive techniques such as photos , videos, and
`animation clips.
`
`2. To allow employees to tap into their travel history without having to call a travel agent.
`
`3. To coordinate with the personnel department to provide accrued vacation time per employee. This information is
`confidential, but it helps employees make vacation plans.
`
`4. To allow previous exotic travellers to store travel photos, comments, and tips in their own personal web directory
`(limited to 2MB total data size) .
`
`5. To allow any web user to browse TraveiCo's NDS tree and view each travel agent's photo and HTML page.
`
`They want to design their web site around the following main areas:
`
`Exotic journeys. Provide a way for employees to search for exotic trips by clicking on locations from a world map. A
`search engine displays related documents , which the user can select by the cflck of a mouse.
`
`Client travel database. Allow valid NDS users to view their own personal travel data, including flying preferences and
`previous journeys taken.
`
`Client travel p hotos. Allow any user to browse client information stored in NDS, including photographs, home pages,
`and user information s uch as phone numbers. Also and go to the user's home web directory.
`
`Contests and promotions. Entice users to return often by offering a game with prizes for the winners. Also provide a
`dynamic link to current promotion information via NDS.
