6. Setting the
Remote PServer
Name for
RPrinter/NPrinter
(Recommended
for Large
Networks)
The default is: No name.
When the XNIC is running RPrinter/NPrinter in large
networks (over 25 file servers) it is recommended to set the
XNIC with the PServer name that will remotely attach to the
XNIC. This setting will reduce the waiting time for the first
job to print after the printer is powered on.
Issue this command from TES to set a PServer name to attach
to the remote printer:
>define node
pserver_name
npserver
>init delay 0
7. Setting NDS
Context
(Recommended
for Large
Networks)
The default is: No name.
If running in NetWare 4.x NDS in large networks (over 25 file
servers), it is recommended to set the NDS context name
where the PServer object exists.
Issue this command from TES to set the context name on the
XNIC:
>define server netware context
“context_name”
>init delay 0
Follow these examples to determine the
context_name
.
If the PServer object is created in the
Marketing
organization,
then the
context_name
is
marketing.
If the PServer object is created in a unit under the
Marketing
organization called as
Printing
, then the
context_name
is
marketing.printing.
Issue this command from TES to verify the context name
setting on the XNIC:
>list server netware
Do not use the
show server netware
command for this
purpose.
