Changing The Print Server Name (NDS & Bindery)

When defining a new print queue on a Novell file server, a new print server must be defined to represent the NIC. This name must match the pre-defined name given to the print server. By default, this name is in the format M_xxxxxx where xxxxxx equals the last six digits of the NIC’s Ethernet address found on the bottom of the device

(e.g., M_091C1A). You must make sure that the print server object that you are using for your PSERVER setup has the same name as that stored on the NIC. If you need to rename the print server object in Netware Administrator, please delete the object and re-create it with the new name. Netware administrator seems to have some problems with renaming objects.
