Preferred File Server (NDS & Bindery)
In a bindery setup, the preferred file server specifies the file server that the
print server object was created on. In an NDS setup, it specifies a file server
that the print server object resides on. Since NDS is distributed, most
administrators will not know which file server(s) the print server object is
actually stored on, so in most NDS environments this option is not used. This
feature is useful in a large Novell network so that the NIC does not ignore
important file servers. If you are setting up the NIC to work with a Bindery file
server, it is a good idea to set a preferred server on the NIC.
To view those file servers that the NIC does acknowledge at a given time, use
the
debug nest fserver
command. See Chapter 13, “Commands” for
more information.
