PointandprintfromUNIXtoWindowsServer2003
Point-and-Print behavior from UN IX clients to Windows Server 2 003 and Windows Storage Server
2003 is similar to the behavior for Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows Millennium Edition
clients, because all these clients create SMB connections. However, the non–Windows operating systems
maintain their own driver model, so these clients do not automatically get the driver during Point and
Print—they must install the driver locally. Like the Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows Millennium
clients, these non–Windows clients do not receive driver updates from the print server after a driver is
initially downloaded. The same connection methods are available: drag and drop, the Add Printer
Wizard, referencing a UNC path, or double-clicking the shared printer icon.

File and Print Services for NetWare (FPNW)
File and Print Ser vices for NetWare (FPNW) is one part of the Microsoft software package called
Services for NetWare. The most c om m on use of the NetWare network operating system is as a file and
print server. FPNW eases the addition of the storage server into a mixed infrastructure by providing a
NetWare user interface (UI) to a Windows Storage Server 2003-based server; administrators and users
see their same, familiar NetWare UI. Additionally, the same logon for clients is maintained without a
need for any client configuration changes.
This service also provides the ability to create Novell volumes, which are actually NTFS shares, from
which users can map drives and access resources. Novell Login scripts are supported on the storage
server or through an existing NDS (Novell Directory Services) acc ount. This requires no changes o r
additions to the software on the NetWare client computers.
