4 Find the following line:
;net.slp.DAAddresses = myDa1,myDa2,myDa3
5 Modify the line by removing the semicolon and typing the actual IP address of the OpenSLP
DA you defined in
“Setting Up an OpenSLP DA Server” on page 115 .
net.slp.DAAddresses = IP_Address

7 At the Linux command prompt, enter the following to restart the SLP daemon and reset its
configuration:
rcslpd restart
Configuring NetWare Servers to Use the OpenSLP Service
IMPORTANT: NetWare uses Novell SLP by default and will configure a server for that service if
possible.
Complete one of the following as it applies to your situation:
Š
“Configuring for DA Access During the NetWare Server Installation” on page 118
Š
“Configuring for DA Access After Installing the NetWare Server” on page 118
Configuring for DA Access During the NetWare Server Installation
1 In the dialog box where you set up IP addresses for network boards, click Advanced .
2 Click the SLP tab.
3 Specify the IP address of the OES 2 DA servers—up to three.
4 Type the list of scopes covered by the configured DAs that you want the NetWare server to
have access to.
IMPORTANT: We recommend you do not configure the server to use multicast because that
necessitates disabling firewalls, which is never recommended.
5 Click OK.
Configuring for DA Access After Installing the NetWare Server
1
Using a text editor, edit the
SYS:ETC/slp.cfg
file on the NetWare server and add the
following line for each DA server you want the NetWare server to have access to:
DA IPV4, IP_Address1
DA IPV4, IP_Address2
where IP_AddressX is the IP address of an OES 2 DA server.
2
Save the file and close it.
3 At the NetWare console prompt, specify the scopes you want the NetWare server to have access
to, write the SLP cache to the registry, and restart the SLP service:
set slp scope list = scope1,scope2,...
flush cdbe
set slp reset = on
