Setting Up the Network Server

Setting Up an NDS Connection

In NDS, all NetWare entities (objects) are organized in a hierarchical
tree structure. Objects have a name, properties, and a context that
defines the location of the object in the directory tree. For the DP-C106,
you must define a printer, a print server object, and one or more print
queue objects. Objects are created in NetWare administrator programs,
such as PConsole, NetAdmin, or NetWare Administrator.

The top-level object is known as the [Root] object. The name of the
[Root] object is also the name of the tree. Below the [Root] are other
objects: containers that consist of other objects or leaf objects that do
not contain other objects. Access to objects is controlled by rights that
are defined as properties of each object. Rights are established by
system administrators.

Setting the NetWare 4.x or 5.x Bindery Context

You can connect only one directory tree to the DP-C106. If you need to
connect additional NetWare 4.x or 5.x servers, you can do so by using
bindery emulation, which causes the 4.x or 5.x server to behave like
and be accepted as a NetWare 3.x server.

Keypoint:

The selected file server must be in a different tree from that
selected in NDS Setup.

Up to eight bindery servers, in native 3.x or 4.x or 5.x emulation mode
can connect to the DP-C106.

In order to set up the NetWare 4.x or 5.x server in bindery emulation
mode for printing to the DP-C106, the system administrator must:

Determine the Directory Services path to the container in which
the print server and the print queue for the DP-C106 will be
created. The container defines the bindery context for the network
structure.

Edit the network startup file to set the bindery context.

Activate the new bindery context.
