Bi-Admin

For more control and flexibility, or to use NetWare Remote Printer Mode, you can use the supplied Bi-Admin management utility. Provided you have Novell's Client 32 installed, Bi-Admin will allow you to configure the NetWare Server as well as the Print Server.

∙Bi-Admin is installed by run the Setup.exe in Utility\Bi-Adminfolder in the CD-ROM.

∙See Chapter 5 for general information on using Bi-Admin.

∙The NetWare Manual (in the Manual\NetWare folder on the CD-ROM) contains detailed information on using Bi-Admin with NetWare Servers.

Other Methods

If you are unable to use Windows-based programs for configuration, the following methods are available to configure the Print Server:

WPConfig This program requires Windows 3.1, and the IPX/SPX protocol.

PSConfig Menu-based DOS program, intended only to configure the Print Server for use with NetWare V2, 3 and 4.

Quickset Command-line DOC program, intended only to configure the Print Server for use with NetWare V2, 3 and 4. This program also has a limited ability to configure the NetWare Server itself.

∙These programs are provided on the CD-ROM, in the Utility folder.

∙WPConfig has a SETUP program; the other programs need only to be copied to the desired folder on your PC.

∙The documentation for these programs is provided in sub−folders of the Manual folder on the CD-ROM.

∙PSConfig and WPConfig do NOT configure your NetWare Server. It is necessary to use PCONSOLE to create the necessary print object and queues, and ensure the appropriate users have access rights to the print queues.
