Setting up network servers
Setting the NetWare 4.x bindery context
The native structure for Novell 4.x objects is known as Directory Services (DS). To
provide backward compatibility with Novell 3.1x services, Novell 4.x servers use
Bindery Emulation to behave like Novell 3.1x servers.
If your server is using NetWare 3.x, proceed to “Setting up a Fiery SI print queue” on
page 3-9.
Setting up a NetWare 4.x environment correctly requires the presence and active
cooperation of the Novell network administrator.
In order to set up the NetWare 4.x server for printing to the Fiery SI, the network
administrator must do the following:
• Determine the Directory Services path to the container in which the print server and
the print queue for the Fiery SI will be created.
The container defines the “bindery context” for your network structure. This is
required for the Fiery SI to work with NetWare 4.x.
• Edit the network startup file to set the bindery context
• Activate the new bindery context
This section describes the second and third steps. Given the variety of possible network
structures, we can’t suggest a bindery context that applies to every network.
