Setting the NetWare 4.x bindery context
Novell 4.x servers use a different environment setup than Novell 3.1x
servers. (If your server is using NetWare 3.x, proceed to "Setting up a
KX-P8420 print queue" on
objects is known as Novell Directory Services (NDS). To provide backward
compatibility with Novell 3.1x services, Novell 4.x servers use Bindery
Emulation to "act" like a Novell 3.1x server.
To set up the NetWare 4.x server for printing to the printer, you must do the
following:
•
Determine the NDS path to the container in which the print server and the
print queue for the printer will be created.
The container defines the bindery context for your network structure.
Network devices that are not NetWare 4.x-aware need a bindery context
to work with NetWare 4.x.
•
Edit the network startup file to set the bindery context.
•
Activate the new bindery context.
This section describes the second and third steps. Given the variety of
possible network structures, we can't suggest a bindery context that
applies to every network.
To set the bindery context:
1
At the NetWare drive prompt, change directories to the
System directory, and type rconsole
2
Establish a connection with the server that will have the
printer queue.
3
At the NetWare prompt type load install
The NetWare Server Installation window is displayed.
