5 Configuring for Remote Boot
Setting Up a Novell NetWare 3.x and 4.x Server for Remote Start
3 Test the bootable diskette by using it to log onto the server. (To do this, you must
use
F:
not
A:
in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file.)
4 Generate the Boot Image on the server using DOSGEN. Refer to the Novell
NetWare manual for details. (The name of this Boot Image file will always be
NET$DOS.SYS):
a Start the Administrator Workstation.
b Log onto the LAN as
SUPERVISOR
.
c Type
MAP F:=SYS:SYSTEM
d Type
MAP G:=SYS:LOGIN
e Change to the
SYS:LOGIN
directory by typing
G:
f Insert the bootable diskette into drive A.
g Run DOSGEN by typing
F:DOSGEN
DOSGEN will create a Boot Image file called NET$DOS.SYS (containing a
copy of the files on the bootable diskette) in the SYS:LOGIN directory.
5 Make the NET$DOS.SYS file in SYS:LOGIN shareable by typing
FLAG
NET$DOS.SYS S
6 If required, give the Modify capability to the remote boot user in SYS:LOGIN by
typing
GRANT M TO Username
At this point, the PC should be able to start from the server without using the PC's
flexible or hard disk (the server should already be set up).
If a Login script
Username
has been assigned to the user, it will be executed at the
end of the AUTOEXEC.BAT file created above.
