Utility Tool 13 2 Note Define the primary file sever if the network connects to many sites and has more than one file server. PCONSOLE should be used to set up the primary file sever. Setup for NetWare 4.x-6 Novell NetWare 4.x-6 can operate in two modes, NetWare Directory Service (NDS) and Bindery Emulation Service (Bindery Emulation). Bindery Emulation and NDS will be executed simultaneously. It is also possible to set up the print server so that it operates only in Bindery Emulation mode or in NDS mode. The print server set up for NDS mode will also service the file server of an old version operating in Bindery mode. If NDS is not set up properly for the print server and Bindery Service mode is not operating, the print server cannot find the file server and Novell NetWare protocol will be indicated as inactive in the Status Page. Setup information NDS Novell Directory Service (NDS) offers a different, more advanced approach to network management than previous NetWare versions. Generally, it stores and tracks all network objects. All 4.x-6 servers must have NDS loaded in order to function. In this way, every NetWare 4.x-6 server is a Directory server, because it services named Directory objects such as printing systems, print server and print queues. With the appropriate privileges, you can create a print server object, which, once configured in its context (or location) on the network, eliminates the setup of print servers on every network server. NDS provides true enterprise networking based on a shared network database rather than individually defined physical sites. The result is a greatly improved print server setup and management. Bindery Emulation NetWare 4.x-6 also provides backward compatibility for 3.x and 4.x-6 print service through Bindery emulation. The Directory Information Base (DIB) is used to store information about servers and services, users, printing systems, gateways, etc. It is a distributed database, allowing access to data anywhere on the network wherever it is stored. bizhub PRO 950 13-21
