Troubleshooting (10/100Base-T)

 

PSERVER Setup

 

If there is no connection with the NIC after you have completed the print

 

setup, there are several things to confirm.

 

 

Note

The debug information that is mentioned in this section can be

 

found by either telneting to the NIC and issuing the commands

 

given, or by launching a browser to the Novell status page on the

 

NIC

 

(e.g., http://192.168.11.9/networkNovellStatus.html).

 

 

 

Have you tried repowering the NIC? Wait about a minute before checking

 

to see if it has logged in and attached to a queue.

 

Is the network connector fastened tightly to the unit?

 

Is the NIC already servicing a queue on another file server? If so, it

 

cannot service another file server at the same time.

 

Is there an available NetWare user license for the NIC to utilize while it

 

acts as a PSERVER? Every PSERVER takes up one user license since it

 

logs in to the Novell file server.

 

When going through the PSERVER setup steps, did you name the NIC

 

M_xxxxxx” where “xxxxxxequals the last six digits of the Ethernet

 

address? This is the default format of the unit’s name when it is acting as

 

a PSERVER.

 

 

Note

This “M_xxxxxx” name must have six digits after the “”, so if necessary,

 

pad out each byte with a zero (0).

 

 

 

Has the NIC’s name been changed from its default of “M_xxxxxx”, and,

 

if so, have you incorporated this new name into your PSERVER setup?

 

Is there a password set for the Print Server to utilize when it is logging in

 

to the file server? Make sure the NIC’s PSERVER password matches that

 

of the PSERVER setup or set both places to no password.
