Settings for NetWare 4-49
For local networks with a primary server
Even if a primary server is installed on the local network, an
unnecessary dial-up may be generated depend ing on the
configuration.
The following problems are common to both Print Server mode
and Remote Printer mode.
When the power is turned on
Since access is made only to the primary server, no dial-up is
generated.
When the network adapter is not correctly set
Since access is made only to the primary server, no dial-up is
generated. However, if the file server/print serve r of the
remote network is erroneously set as the pr imary server, an
unnecessary dial-up might be generated. Correct the settings
to avoid this problem.
During normal operation (standby/printing)
Since access is made only to the primary server, no dial-up is
generated.
When the primary server is down during operation
Connection to the primary server is periodic ally attempted,
but no dial-up is generated. However, if the router is set to
pass SAP packets (Find Nearest Server), an unnecessary dial-
up might be generated. To avoid this, turn off the p rinter once,
or do not allow the router to pass SAP packets (Find Nearest
Server).
