NDS PSERVER Setup (Netware 4.x/5.x)NDS PSERVER Setup (Netware 4.x/5.x)

There are a number of ways to configure the NIC for use in a Novell NDS PSERVER setup. These include using the MPAdmin snap-in for Netware Administrator, using generic print server objects in Netware Administrator, or by using PCONSOLE. The following steps describe a setup using a generic print server object in Netware Administrator. Setups using PCONSOLE are less common and will not be discussed.

To create a printer/print queue in an NDS environment using Netware Administrator print server objects:

1.Log in to Netware Administrator as a user with security equal to Admin on your Novell host.

2.Click the right mouse button on a branch in the tree in which you would like to create a print queue object.

3.Select Create... from the pop-up menu. The New Object dialogue displays.

4.Select Print Queue from the Class of new object list, and click OK.

5.Select Directory Service Queue and type the name of the queue into the Print Queue name field.

6.Fill in the Print Queue Volume field by typing in a volume or browsing for one. Click Create.

7.Click the right mouse button on a branch in the tree in which you would like to create a printer object.

8.Select Create... from the pop-up menu. The New Object dialogue displays.

9.Select Printer from the Class of new object list and click OK.

10.Type the name of the printer in the Printer name field.

NOTE: The Printer object name must match one of the destination names on the NIC. Most likely, this will be d1prn.
