Chapter 5 Configuring The Internal Ethernet Adapter For Novell
174
Host Configuration
The Internal Ethernet Adapter can act as either a PSERVER or as an
RPRINTER in a Novell environment. It supports encrypted passwords
and it is capable of servicing up to 16 file servers and 32 queues as a
PSERVER. One Internal Ethernet Adapter can handle eight RPRINTER
setups.
PSERVER Bootup
When booting as a PSERVER, the Internal Ethernet Adapter gets a
server list from the first file server it contacts. The unit then contacts
those servers on that list to see if there is a queue that needs servicing.
The queues are then polled every 5 seconds (by default) by the Print
Server to see if there are any print jobs queued.
RPRINTER Bootup
When booting as an RPRINTER, the Internal Ethernet Adapter again
gets a server list from the first file server it contacts. For each server
found on that list, it then looks for a file called SYS:\LOGIN\M_
xxxxxx\
CONFIG where xxxxxx equals the last six hexadecimal digits in the
Ethernet address found on the bottom of the unit. This file contains one
set rprinter command for each RPRINTER serviced by the Internal
Ethernet Adapter since the RPRINTER settings do not hold their effect
through a power cycle.
NOTE: If the Internal Ethernet Adapter loses a connection to a file
server (as a PSERVER) or to a PSERVER (as an RPRINTER),
it will automatically reconnect when that server becomes
available again.
Following are the configuration steps for a PSERVER setup, an
RPRINTER setup, as well as the options available for NetWare 4
environments.
