52 CONFIGURING THE M204 FOR NOVELL: M204 Configuration
To communicate with the unit using npsh.exe, you need to:
1 From a DOS prompt on a Novell workstation, begin an npsh session with the unit.
npsh unitname
Starts a Telnet-like session with the named print server with guest access only.
2 To obtain root access to the unit, type:
supervisor
A standard login screen is displayed prompting you for the login name and pass-
word.
3 Login to the unit as a root user.
root
Root users require the use of a password as configured in the unit’s user list.
4 Enter the password. If this password is not yet set, press enter at the password
prompt. Otherwise, enter the password that is already stored on the unit.
password
You are now logged in to the unit as a root user and can access any npsh command on
the unit.
Because npsh.exe makes use of broadcasts, you may have problems communicating
across a router.
Please see User Accounts and Permissions on page 82 and npsh Command Set on
page 83 for further details.
M204 Configuration
The Print Server configuration in a Novell environment is much simpler than that
required in a TCP/IP one. No addresses, masks, or router entries are necessary and in
most cases, the M204 can simply be connected to the network, turned on, and then
configured for printing from a Novell station through PCONSOLE. The only parame-
ters that you may want to set is a PSERVER password or possibly the frame type.
Please see store pserver on page 107. This type of configuration is done using
npsh.exe as detailed in the previous section.
