Chapter 6 Novell Ethernet Interface Configuration

Novell Ethernet Interface Configuration

ADAPTER,

Mandatory

WIRELESS

Under all Novell environments, the Ethernet Interface does not

require any network settings to make it visible on the network.

ADAPTER

Simply plug it in to your network and power it on. However, with a

 

new print queue setup on a Novell file server, there can be

 

mandatory settings needed on the Ethernet Interface.

Optional

Additional settings are available to fine-tune the Ethernet

Interface’s Novell functionality. These options include:

NDS Context. The NDS context in which the print server object was created. If you create the printer server object in a different file server object from the file server you logged into, then to ensure the absolute path, you must activate the NDS context.

NDS Tree. The NDS tree the print server object was created in. This is only needed if your environment uses more than one NDS tree.

Mode. The mode the Ethernet Interface will run in. This can be auto, bindery, or NDS. The default is auto so that the Ethernet Interface can autosense which mode it should run in. See “NetWare Version 4.x and 5.x RPRINTER Setup” on page 185 for information on what to do when using both bindery and NDS file servers at the same time.
