Standby mode (factory default mode):

The Standby mode is the default mode. This mode disables all NetWare related functions. Use the Standby mode when you are not using the network interface in a NetWare environment.

Instructions for Using NetWare

Printing a text file

When you print a text file using the NPRINT command of NetWare or DOS, redirection, misconversion or a gap in characters may occur depending on the client environment.

IPX routing protocol “NLSP”

It is possible to set the IPX routing protocol “NLSP” from NetWare 4.x or later; however, the network interface does not support NLSP. RIP/SAP controls the communication.

You can select the routing protocol from a) NLSP with RIP/SAP Compatibility, or b) RIP/SAP Only. If you remove the bind of RIP or SAP when NLSP with RIP/SAP Compatibility is specified, the network interface then cannot communicate with the file server and NDS. (See “Protocols” and “Bindings” in NetWare’s INETCFG utility.)

Bindery and NDS

You can check the bindery context path from the server console by using the SET BINDERY CONTEXT command.

If the bindery context path has not been set, or if you want to use the printing environment of another context from a non-NDS client, you need to specify the context for the bindery context. Use the SET BINDERY CONTEXT command to set the context in the AUTOEXEC.NCF file.
