2-8 Setting up Network Servers
Fiery on a NetWare network
The NetWise
™
features built into the Fiery support the following network operating
environments:
• NetWare—NDS (Novell Directory Services)
• Servers running NetWare in bindery emulation mode
The term “Netware” is used to refer to Netware 4.x, 5.x, and 6.x.
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.
NOTE: The iPrint feature available with NetWare 6.x is not supported.
The term “bindery server” is used to refer to a Novell file server running NetWare in
emulation mode. The term “NDS” is used to describe components of a NetWare
operating system running NetWare in native mode.
NetWare clients print to the Fiery through the Novell network server. Server setup and
client network setup are outlined in this chapter, client printing setup is described in
the User Software Installation Guide, and printing is described in the Printing Guide.
The Fiery can receive print jobs from NetWare clients over Ethernet network
topologies. During Fiery Setup, you select the frame type or types that will be used for
communication between the Fiery 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.
