Example

you would place the following lines in your NET.CFG file:

 

netware dos requester

 

preferred server=mkt_9

 

 

NOTE:If both PREFERRED TREE (for NetWare Directory Services) and PREFERRED SERVER (for bindery services) are specified, then the first protocol to successfully build an attachment is used.

PREFERRED TREE=“tree_name”

Sets the Directory tree you first want to connect to in a NetWare 4 network if you have multiple trees.

If the tree specified has a server with a free connection, the NetWare DOS Requester attaches to that tree. Otherwise, it attaches to the nearest tree that contains a User object for the user authenticating to the network server.
