Other NSS file and directory attributes are supported on NSS volumes on Linux. You can use the
attrib command to view and modify these attributes. However, they are not viewable through any
NCP clients.
The NCP Extended Attributes (supported in early versions of NCP) are not supported on Linux.
8.3.3 Reassigning Trustee Rights after the Migration
Because of the inherent differences between the Windows, NetWare, and Linux file systems, you
might have to reassign trustee rights after copying Windows data to an OES Linux or NetWare
server.
If you have a Windows or Linux workstation running the Novell Client software, you can use the
Novell RIGHTS utility to change trustee rights assignments and Inherited Rights Filters. The
RIGHTS utility lets you make changes recursively within the directory structure. See
(Linux)" and
"RIGHTS
(NetWare)" in the Utilities Reference for OES for more information.
To change trustee assignments on an OES Linux NCP volume, use the NCPCON utility. This utility
does not change Inherited Rights Filers and does not do recursion, but you can script it with bash to
perform the recursion if needed. See
for OES for more information.
8.4 Migrating iPrint Printers and Print Managers
from NetWare to Linux
This section explains how to copy existing iPrint Printer Agents or Print Managers (PSMs) running
on NetWare 6.5 to iPrint Print Managers running on OES Linux.
If you want to consolidate NDPS Printer Agents from one NDPS Print Manager to another in a
single-tree NetWare-to-NetWare consolidation, see
Agents," on page
54.
If you want to migrate a print system running on Windows NT or Windows 2000/2003, use the
iPrint Migration Utility for Windows Printing. This utility is available separately and can be
downloaded from the
Novell Support Web site
When moving an iPrint print system from NetWare to OES Linux, be aware of the following points:
• The Server Consolidation Utility lets you copy existing iPrint printers running on NetWare to
iPrint Managers running on OES Linux. NDPS printers can also be copied to a Print Manager
on an OES Linux server, provided they are iPrint enabled first.
• Using the Server Consolidation Utility interface, you can merge the Printer Agents associated
with an existing Print Manager on NetWare with the printers associated with an existing Print
Manager on Linux. You can also create new Print Managers on Linux. With careful planning,
you can easily migrate printers with no interruption to your users.
• The utility does not move nonreferenced objects such as driver profiles and custom banners.
• Print Managers and Printer Agents are not removed from the source server when you copy
them. The print configuration is copied to the destination, not moved. When you are finished
migrating your print system, you must manually delete the source Print Managers and Printer
Agents.
