Chapter 12 Novell NIC Configuration (10/100Base-T)

Setting The Print Server Preferred NDS Tree (NDS)

The NIC supports Novell environments that have multiple trees. If your environment has more than one tree, you may want to set a preferred tree. By default, the NIC will try to log in to each tree it finds until it is successful.

HTML Method

1.Load a Web browser on a network station that can communicate with the print server over TCP/IP.

2.Direct your Web browser to URL:

http://P5000LJIPaddress/networkConf.html (e.g., http://192.75.11.9/networkConf.html)

Note

If prompted for a User ID and password first, type in root for the ID and

 

press ENTER at the password prompt since there is no password by

 

default.

 

 

3.Look under the “Novell” section and enter the preferred tree in the “NDS Preferred Tree” field.

4.Click on the SUBMIT button when done and physically re-power the printer to make the new settings take effect.

Manual (Telnet) Method

1.

Telnet to the print server. This will bring up a login screen:

Note

If prompted for a User ID and password first, type in root for the ID and

 

press ENTER at the password prompt since there is no password by

 

default.

 

 

2.

You should now see a prompt displayed that has the NIC’s IP address

 

followed by a colon then root.

 

ipaddress:root>

3.

At the prompt, enter:
