Network Interface Card Chapter 8

NetWare configuration

Confirming the Bindery Context

Before installing the Network Card under Novell NetWare 4.x in the bind- ery emulation mode, you should first confirm whether the server has a bindery context (name assigned to the server by the bindery services mode). If it doesn’t, install in the NDS mode.

Bindery context is required to install the Network Card in the bindery em- ulation mode. Use the following procedure to confirm whether your server has bindery context.

1On the NetWare 4.x server, type: load install Enter

2Select Maintenance/Selective Install from the menu.

3On the Installation Options menu, select NCF File Options.

4From the menu of available NCF file options, select Edit AUTOEX- EC.NCF.

5Search the file and check to see if it contains a statement similar to the one shown below.

SET BINDERY CONTEXT=OU=ENG

OU=ENG is an example file server context. Use your own file server context in place of OU=ENG.

6At the console prompt, type the SET BINDER CONTEXT statement exactly as you entered it in your AUTOEXEC.NCF file.

Note

The command you type at the console prompt takes effect immediate- ly. The contents defined in the AUTOEXEC.NCF file take effect when the server is shut down and then restarted.
