4-2 NetWare 4.x Configuration Using

Bindery Emula t ion

Novel NetWare 4.x supports two operation modes: NDS and bindery
services emulation. This chapter explains ho w to configure NetWare

4.x using bindery emulation. For information about NDS, see 4-3
Configuration Using Novell Directory Services.

These two services run simultaneously and transparently to each other.
The Network Card can be configur ed to operate in the bindery servic es
mode only or under NDS. Under NDS, the Network Card will also
service older file servers operating in bindery mode.

Note

• The Network Card will not be able to find its file servers if it i s not cor­rectly configured for NDS operation and the bindery s ervices mode is
not running. You can use MAP or a Web browser to check the configu­rati on of th e Networ k Card. See

4-3 Configuration Using Novell Directory

Services

Novell Directo ry Services (NDS) provides a more adva nced approach
to network management than previous versions of NetWare. It stores
and tracks all network objects. A Version 4.x or 5.x serv e r must have
NDS installed in order to function.

This means every NetWare 4.x or 5.x server is a directory server,
because it services printers, print servers, print queues, and other
named directory objects. With appropriate pr ivileges, you can create a
print server object and assign them network-wide contexts (or
locations), which eliminates the need to perform troublesome setup of
print servers on each individual network server .

Chapter 4

NDS provides true enterprise networking based not on individually
defined physical sites, but rather on a shared net work database. The
result is vastly improved print server setup and management.

The Directory Information Base (DIB) is used to store information
about server s and se rvi ces , us ers, p rin ters , gateways, etc. It is a
distributed database that allows access to data anywhere on the
network, regardless of where it is stored. Pre-4.x NetWare versions
provide the same data as DIB, but the dat a is stored in the NetWare
bindery.

4-13

NetWare Configuration

Chapter 4

4-3 Configuration Using Novell Director y Services

DIB is design e d for mo re flexibl e acc es s, mo re specific secur ity, and,
because it is distributed, a design that allows pa rtitioning. Unlike
bindery's flat fi le structure, the DIB directory uses an object-oriented
structure, enabling network-oriented access as opposed to bindery's
server-oriented access.

The bindery emulation mode provide s the directory with downwar d
compatibility with NetWare bindery. This section (4.3) explains
operation of the print serv er with a 4.x NetWare system in bindery
emulation mode. Once bindery emulation is enabled, NDS receives
bindery requests and responds just as if a bindery existed on the
NetWare server being accessed.

It should be noted he re that information obtained from a bi ndery query
may not be stored on the server because the directory is a partitioned
and distributed dat abase. Though a NetWare 4.x server is not oper ating
from a bindery, applications making bindery requests do not know the
difference.

NWADM IN can be used to configure the printer in NDS. Before
printing, you must use the procedures below to configur e NDS, and to
set up the Network Card with NDS context and tree.

The procedures for us ing NWADMIN to create the printe r , print ser v er ,
and other print queue objects are provided below. After you create
these objects you must then associate them with each other. Under
NetWare 4.x you can ke ep bindery resources on a ny server if you want

such as which queues to service and whom to notify in case of
problems. See the Novell NetWare documentation for details about
using PCONSOLE for NDS.

Note

• Some NetWare servers require that bindery context be configured on
the file server, even when using th e NDS mode.

NetWare Enterprise Print Services is a Novell softwa re solution built

an advanced pr inting arc hit ecture tha t can be run on ei ther an IP X or an
IP network. NDPS over IP is the native printing approach for NetWare

5.x systems.

NDPS is not yet implemented on printer resident print serv ers . Instead,
a NetWare server includes a gateway that translates between NDPS and
a printer-suppor ted protocol or protocols. Gateways exist for
PSERVER on IPX, for LPD, and for raw binary sockets printing on IP.
Some gateways suppo rt NDPS configuration and status information
capabilities using SNMP.

4-21

NetWare Configuration

4-4 Configuring NetWare Enterprise Print Services (NDPS)

The following secti ons describe the NDPS configurat ion using Novell­supplied gateways. For networks running NDS ove r IPX, the gateways
use the NetWare PSERVER function implemented on the printer
Network Cards. For networks using IP, the Novell-supplied gateway
uses the printer LPD capability. Novell is developing an NDPS
gateway for pri nters implementing the IPP protocol; upda te
information on how to set this up will be provided when the capability
is released and verified with these printers.

access to queue-based printing resources for a variety of reasons.
While connecting to queue-based pri nters controlled by NetWare 4 or
NetWare 5 servers in the current NDS tr ee can be acco m p lish ed
directly when you config ure a Printer Agent, you may need to create
one or more “bindery reference queues” to provide access to printers
controlled by a NetWare 3 file server or printers controlled by a
NetWare 4 or NetWare 5 server in a different NDS tree.

4-4 Configuring NetWare Enterprise Print Services (NDPS)

A bindery reference queue serves as a pointer to a real NetWare queue
on both types of servers. After you have created a bindery reference
queue to point to a real bindery queue on a target server, you can then
configure a Printer Agent to send jobs to that queue just as you would if
the queue actually resided on a NetWare 4.x or NetWa re 5.x server in
the same tree. The following section explains ho w to acc omplish this
procedure using NetWare Administrator.

Note

• If a bindery reference queue already exists, you can use it with NDPS
with no modific ation. A new reference queue object does not need to
be created in NDS.

4-4-3-1 Prerequisites

Before you can create a bindery reference queue, the following
requirements must be met:

• The print queue you want to referenc e must already exist on the

• A bindery object of the same name as the one you are using must
exist on that server and must have rights t o the print queue you are

4-4-5-2 Converting Public-Access Printers to

Controlled-Access Printers

T o take full advant age of the security and management features
provided by NDS, you may want to convert public- access printers to
controlled-access printers.

For example, if you have used a third-party gateway to get a printer up
and running immediately (plug-a nd-print), the gateway automatically
creates a public-access printer . La ter, you may want to convert that
printer to a contro lled-acc ess printe r. The fol lowing proce dure e xplains
how to convert a public-access p ri nter to contro l led -ac ces s .

Prerequisites

To create a controlled-access printer on your network, you must meet
the following prerequisites:

• Have at least Read, Writ e, Mod if y, and Create privileges for the
destination conta iner where its associate d Printer object will r eside

• Be designated as a manager of the NDPS Manager that will con­trol this Printer Agent

Generally, printer-based lpd is easiest to use on BSD UNIX systems
that require an entry in the printcap file once the Network Card has its
IP information. Some UNIX System V systems place restrictions on
support of remote lpr/lpd pri nters, requiring that the host-based lpr/lpd
approach be used.

On many UNIX systems, you can choose between host-resident
printing or print server-resident printing. The following shows the
differenc es between the two types of printing.

6-2

6-1 Printer-based lpd Configuration

Note

• The Network Card also operates with other host-resident print supervi­sor/spooler programs that provide a print image to the printer over a
TCP/IP port. The base TCP/IP port number can be changed using Tel­net, MAP, or a Web bro w ser . The actual port is always one higher than
the base port number. The status page shows the actu al port number.

With both the host-based and printer-based lpd, you must assign IP
par a meters to the Networ k C ar d . See Chapter 7 - Setting Up IP
Parameters for more information.

6-1 Printer-based lpd Configuration

lpd/lpr is an implementation of the standard UNIX line printer daemon.
It lets you print across a TCP/IP network without needing to install
software on your workstation. All fil tering and banners are done by the
Network Card. Remote p rinting uses the same c ommands (lpr, lpq, lpc)
as local printing.

An lpr reque st from a workstation refer en ces the remote (rm) entr y in
the

/etc /print cap

opens a connection with the network lpd/lpr process on the remote
system, and sends the data file to the remote printer. The printer- based
lpd then filters the dat a and prints the job in accordance with
information contained in the control file and its own printcap file.

file, where it finds the printer on a remote system. lpr

The Network Card lpd recognizes the format of certain printer
emulations and filters the data, if possible, so it can be printed on the
printer type you specify. Either of the following two methods can be
used to inform the Network Card lpd of what type of printer is
connected.

1. Using the default port se tting (PCL, PostScript, etc.)

2. Using Te lnet or the Network Card HTML settings page to change
the listed emu lation t ypes ( Network C ard HTML se ttings pa ge c an
be accessed using MAP or a Web browser.)
