4.4 Configuring the Network Interface Board
NetWare Configuration
4-13
The default name is the Network Interface Board serial number (six digits with a
three-letter prefix). This is also the default name of the printer in peer-to-peer
mode.
Note:
If you make any changes, you will be prompted for a password. The default password
is sysadm.
5.
Optionally, to secure the Network Interface Board with a password, enter a
password in the
Print Server Password
field and again in the
Password Retype
field.
If you are using a password, use the same password for all bindery-based and
NDS-based Print Server entries.
If you enter a password, you must also enter the same password in the password
field on your file server setup using PCCONSOLE or NWADMIN.
6.
For Bindery emulation, enter the name of a preferred bindery-based file server in
the
Preferred File Server
field.
The Preferred File Server entry applies only for Bindery- or Bindery Emulation-
based operations. See
Section 4.1.9 Setting Up Preferred File Servers
for the
significance of a Preferred File Server. The Print Server must be configured on the
preferred file server. Incorrect setup of a Preferred File Server can interfere with
NetWare printing.
7.
If the Print Server operates under Novell Directory Services, enter a Context and
Preferred NDS Tree in the appropriate fields.
Be sure to give the
whole
context, whether
typed
or
typeless
, and do not begin
your context path with a leading period.
An example of a
typed context name
is
ou=standard.ou=organization_1
.
(If you do not know your tree, open a DOS command box and enter the
whoami
command.)
An example of a
typeless context name
is
organization_1
.
You must use a typeless context if the Network Interface Board is on the same
network segment as the file server.
8.
Enter the time intervals, in seconds, in which the Print Server will scan the queues
that it services in the
Print Queue Scan Rate
field.
The default scan rate is once per second.
9.
If your network uses multiple frame types for Novell, you can bias the frame
search to the desired type by setting the radio button next to the designation under
Ethernet Frame Type.
