Setting PSERVER Mode in a NetWare 4.x Bindery Emulation Network

Besides the NDS mode, NetWare 4.x also allows file servers to provide Bindery emulation services to
devices or computers that are capable of operating only in Bindery mode. In this setup example, the
PS110/PS113 print server is connecting to the NetWare 4.x file server in Bindery emulation mode.
Log in to your NDS network as ADMIN or as a user with Administrator access privileges. Make a note
of the attached server name that appears on the screen. This information will be used later to configure
the NETGEAR print server.
To configure the file server to use the Model PS110/PS113 print server in PSERVER mode:
1. Execute the PCONSOLE program from the System volume of the file server.
The Available Options window opens. Make sure that the following five menu selections are in the window:
•
Print Queues
•
Printers
•
Print Servers
•
Quick Setup
•
Change Context
If you are running Client32, you see these five menu selections in the window to indicate that you are
configuring the file server in NDS mode. Press F4 to switch to Bindery mode.
If you use 16-bit client to log in to the NetWare 4.x file server, you have only four menu items in the
window (Print Queues, Print Servers, Quick Setup, and Change current NetWare Server).
2. Configure the file server using Quick Setup.
To configure the file server using Quick Setup:
a. Select Quick Setup from the Available Options window.
b. Type the predetermined print server name in the Print Server field.
This name is the one you chose earlier before starting the file server configuration. The factory default
name for the print server is PSxxxxxx (shown on the label on the bottom of the device).
c. Type the printer name you want in the New Printer field.
This name is used to associate a NetWare printer object with each printer port of the Model
PS110/PS113 print server.
d. Type the print queue name you want in the New Print Queue field.
e. Press F10 to save.
