Why each option

ZENworks for Desktops and DHCP are the two mechanisms that can automatically distribute Novell Client configuration properties to multiple workstations without manual per-machine configuration.

ARsync

Rsync is a file synchronization utility and has no capability to configure Novell Client properties.

BOpenSSH

OpenSSH is a secure remote shell protocol and provides no mechanism for distributing client software configuration.

CVirtual Office

Virtual Office is a web-based portal for end-user access and does not configure workstation client software.

DZENworks for DesktopsCorrect

ZENworks for Desktops provides centralized, policy-based management that can push and enforce Novell Client properties - such as preferred server, tree, and context - to groups of workstations.

EDomain Name System (DNS)

DNS provides hostname-to-address resolution and cannot deliver or apply Novell Client configuration settings.

FNetwork Time Protocol (NTP)

NTP synchronizes system clocks and has no role in distributing or applying client software configuration.

GDynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)Correct

DHCP can deliver Novell-specific options (such as preferred tree name, context, and server) via DHCP option codes at IP address assignment time, automatically configuring the Novell Client on each workstation as it obtains an address.
