DIAL-IN MODEM COMMUNICATION
Print Server Plus dial-in modem communication allows a remote
workstation to dial-in to a network modem and gain access to a
local workstation by using third party software such as Norton
pcANYWHERE/LAN
version 4.5 or 5.0. Once a virtual connection
is established, the remote user may perform any operation the local
workstation is capable of including network operations. The steps
involved in setting up the Print Server Plus for Dial-in operation
include configuring PSQMGR (optional) and pcANYWHERE/LAN.
You must also load MSHELL.EXE on the local network
workstation(s) and instruct them to advertise to the Print Server
Plus. Finally, there is a procedure for the remote workstation to
follow when dialing in. The following steps describe these
considerations in more detail.
1.
IMPORTANT: The modem must be connected to a serial
port on the Print Server Plus with a Virtual setting of modem
(see
Section 7.6.5.1
). See
Appendix A
for the
recommended adapter and cable pinouts. Your network
communications program must support EXTENDED BIOS
14 calls in order to work with the Print Server Plus (e.g.,
Norton pcANYWHERE/LAN
version 4.5). The modem
should be programmed to use hardware flow control
(handshaking) and to have DCD follow the state of carrier.
2.
NOTE: This step is optional depending upon whether or not
the default dial-in modem parameters in PSQMGR (
[ Modem
Setup ])
are acceptable (see
Section 4.6
).
Refer to
Section 7.6.5
in the Operator's Manual (Print
Servers - [ Config ]). In order for the
[ Modem Setup ]
selection to be highlighted, you must have supervisory
access. In addition, the Print Server Plus must be in the
Preferred Server mode as described in
Section 7.6.7.4
and
you must be logged into the preferred file server. If you
select
[ Modem Setup ]
, you will receive the following menu:
