Netware 3.X Or 4.X Server Setup - Toshiba e-STUDIO550 Operator's Manual

The NetWise™ software built into the GA-1140 supports the following network operating environments:
• NetWare 4.x—Novell Directory Services (NDS)
• NetWare 3.x—Bindery services
• Servers running NetWare 4.x in bindery emulation mode
NOTE:
Setting up a NetWare environment correctly requires the presence and active cooperation of the
Novell network administrator. You must have administrator privileges on the network to create
new NDS or bindery objects.
The term "bindery server" is used to refer to a Novell file server running NetWare 3.x, or running
NetWare 4.x in bindery emulation mode. The term "NDS" is used to describe components of a NetWare
operating system running NetWare 4.x in native mode.
NetWare clients print to the GA-1140 through the Novell network server. Server setup and client
network setup are outlined here. Client printing setup and printing is described in User's Guide .
The GA-1140 can receive print jobs from NetWare clients over Ethernet. During GA-1140 setup, you
select the frame type or types that will be used for communication between the GA-1140 and network
servers. Frame type refers to the format of a communications packet; frame types are specified in a
startup file when the NetWare server (or any other workstation) loads its network drivers.
Tips for experts—IPX networks
Setting up the GA-1140 is similar to setting up another printer on the network. The following
information is all that experienced network administrators need.
The GA-1140 with IPX connections has these characteristics:
• Both NetWare 3.x and NetWare 4.x are supported directly. NetWare 4.x is also supported through bindery emulation.
• A minimum connection to the GA-1140 consists of a NetWare file server, a NetWare print server, and a NetWare
queue.
• A single directory tree (for NetWare 4.x) and up to eight bindery servers can be configured simultaneously.
• The GA-1140 looks for print jobs on one NetWare print server per bindery server.
• Each print server can store jobs for any queue on the GA-1140.
