the list of file servers to be serviced, the automatic search is dropped and the print server will
go directly to those file servers listed (and to no others).
4.1.8 Primary File Server
To use the primary file server option, use the following procedure on a file server close to the
printer:
1. List the file servers to be serviced by the primary file server by selecting File Server To
Be Serviced option from the Print Server Configuration Menu.
2. Press the INSERT key to display the Available File Servers list.
3. Select the name of each file server to be serviced and press the ENTER key to add it to
the File Servers To Be Serviced list.
4. When the list is complete, press the ESC key to return to the menu.
5. Install the Network Interface Board on each of the primary file servers.
4.1.9 Preferred File Servers
The MAP or Web Browser utilities allow you to identify a preferred file server, to be identified
within the Network Interface Board itself. If a preferred file server is listed, the Network
Interface Board will attach to this identified file server instead of initiating the automatic
search. If the preferred file server is also a primary file server (for example, has file servers
listed under file servers to be serviced), the Network Interface Board will connect directly to
these file servers.
Note: The Preferred File Server is only applicable to bindery-based queues. Entering it
has no affect on NDS queues.
4.2 Configuring NetWare 4.x Bindery Emulation
Novell's NetWare 4.x can operate in two modes NetWare Directory Services (NDS) and
Bindery Services Emulation. For Directory Services,
ð refer to 4.3 Configuring the Network
Interface Board in NetWare Directory Services.
These services run simultaneously and transparently to each other. The Network Interface
Board may be configured to operate with Bindery Services mode only (this section), or to
operate under NDS (
ð 4.3 Configuring the Network Interface Board in NetWare Directory
Services ). When configured under NDS, the Network Interface Board will also service older
file servers operating in bindery mode.
Note: If the Network Interface Board is not properly set up for NDS and the Bindery
Services mode is not running, the Network Interface Board can not find its file servers,
and the status page indicates the Novell NetWare protocol is not active.
4.2.1 Confirm Bindery Context
Before installing the Network Interface Board on a Novell NetWare 4.x server in Bindery
Emulation mode, check that the server has a Bindery Context (name for the server under
Bindery Services mode). If the server does not have Bindery Context, it may be preferable to
install in NDS mode. If the Network Interface Board must be installed in the Bindery
