Date: 2 Sep 1992 07:31:15 -0500
Organization: UTexas Mail-to-News Gateway

Keywords: nfs printers unix

I would like to use the HP laserjet printers mounted on our novell network
for printing from a local unix system.   

The problem is that although we have configured our novell-nfs to accept
lpr requests and even route them through to the correct printer, when they
start to print, the printer halts, expecting someone standing next to the
printer to feed single sheets into it.  The laser printer has a double bin,
which is where we want the paper to come from.

I have experienced this problem before from using the wrong printer drivers
in wordperfect, under DOS.

Which part of the system might the fault lie in?  We arent using forms on
Novell.
I have no idea about printcap( on unix ), perhaps there is some nifty field
I can change in that.

Please reply via email, my access to news is a bit flakey.

I would think that your primary problem is not enough RAM.  I don't have
v2.2 manuals handy for the equations for netware and an 80 Meg HD, but 2
Meg sounds pretty meager.  You should probably upgrade to at least 4 Meg
and I don't think that 8 Meg would hurt.  Ram is pretty cheap so go for
it!

Hello,
	I was wondering if any has any suggestions for my particular problem.
I have a Model 80 with no hard drive which I am using to route PCNet.  Telnet
works and so does FTP when used as a simple workstation.   Router does
recognize the Western Digital board I put in:  "Can not find Micro-channel
adapter."  I have tried it as both LAN card A and B to no Avail.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Burst mode is exactly as you have specified.  The ability to send multiple

there is a read/write request of more than 512 bytes.

Date: 26 Aug 92 21:14:23 GMT
Organization: Veterinary Teaching Hospital, Michigan State Univ.

I recently installed NFS on our 3.11 server and have a few questions:

	Is it possible to make a user's default FTP directory their
	netware home directory? It only seems logical to have this
	feature. Is there something I'm missing in FTPSERV.CFG?

	More importantly, in regards to the LPD services, is there
	a way to control whether or not a BANNER is printed for
	the Netware QUEUE being accessed from a UNIX host?
	Also, what about adding FF's at the end? Is there a way to
	disable this? (Even the simplest LPD programs give you 
	some control over these things and more)

Any help you could give would be greatly appreciated!!!

A client is constructing a new building for his small business.  I am

existing Arcnet NICs and passive hub on his 3-station NW 2.2 network.

I have found a source for RG-62-> twisted pair baluns (Nevada Western), and
they say that they should work with the existing 4-port passive hub.  Has anyone
done this?  Did it work well?

Any tips would be welcome.  I expect to replace the Arcnet with 10BASE-T within
the next 3 years as the network grows...

Sigh! What *are* you talking about Bill? If you would like to point me
at the part of the NFS specification that specifies NFS handshaking
I will be only to pleased to read it. As you appear to need it, here
is "Protocols 101" by Keith Brown, "Handshaking" chapter....

When we shake hands, I start by extending my hand in your general direction.
At this point I am in what is known as the "Hand Extended" state. On a good
day, you will hopefully extend your hand in my direction and this
puts us both in the "Hand Extended" state. We then go into the "hand
holding hand state" followed by repeated "hands moving up" and "hands
moving down" states. Finally, we both go into the "hand back at side"
state. You then go into the "talking about NFS like you understand it state"
and I go into the "clasping you by the neck with my left hand state"
followed by repeated "slapping you across the left cheek" and "slapping
you across the right cheek" states.

Now then, "Protocols 101" by Keith Brown, "NFS Chapter"....

NFS is a stateless protocol.....

Sorry Bill! You haven't caught me in one of my more patient moods.
To save bandwidth, my apology accompanies this post.

I apologise.

Keith

I am not a CNE but I just received the latest info on course options.
First off, SELF-STUDY WORKBOOKS - the only classes supported are DOS for 
NetWare users and Microcomputer concepts for NetWare users. Both of these 
are designed to get you through the DOS/Microcomputer class.(One of the
three core requirements.) Second, STUDENT KITS - are available for the 
remainder of required classes but these only consist of the materials
presented in the instructor led classes and rely on you having existing
knowledge of DOS, NetWare, etc. And it appears that the computer based
training is only available for 3 of the required classes to become a CNE.

If you have any other questions about becoming a CNE, you can call
Novell Education at 1-800-NETWARE (in U.S. and Canada only).

You are missing an intermediate step.
first, some background.

Setting up net.cfg does not actually load the ip protocol stacks, but merely
initializes stubs for the protocol stacks to connect themselves into the ODI
driver.

NCSA telnet, to make it portable, uses the Packet Driver interface.  This
gives a generic interface for the software to work with the NIC.  The packet
driver still doesn't talk IP.  as a matter of fact, the packet driver
doesn't talk any protocol.  The protocol stacks for IP are contained within
NCSA telnet itself.

Therefore, you need to install the packet driver portion.  ODIPKT is what
you seek.

I'll email you one of the FAQ questions that may help you.

My wife (a senior technical writer) is for various reasons interested
in becoming certified as a Novell Certified Netware Engineer (NCNE).
She has discovered that the "standard" approach here is to lay many
bucks on some company designated as a Novell Authorized Education
Center (NAEC) and then take a series of 7 tests to achieve certification.
Since she is confident that her company will not pay the (dare one
say "substantial"?) costs of this, and since she is a reasonably
intelligent person (B.S., M.A., Ph.D.), she would like to pursue
certification sans coursework.

She has also discovered that the NAEC's sell "self-study" kits
(these are apparently not designed really for studying *yourself*,
but for studying netware *by* yourself).  These too are a bit pricey.

Thus the following questions:

	1)  Anyone out there have any experience with these courses
	    or the self-study kits?

	2)  How big of a scam is this?  Are the tests really designed
            to *require* you to take the course (or buy the kit)?

	3)  Anyone got a kit lying around they aren't using and might
	    be willing to loan, sell, or rent?

	4)  Any recommendations for non-course, non-kit materials
            (books, etc.) that would prepare one satisfactorily
            for the tests?  (Assume we have access to a network
            we could play with.)  My wife is (through various
            projects she has worked on) quite familiar with networks
            from a conceptual point of view -- and even, to some degree
            with the theory and some callable interface stuff.

Any information will be appreciated.

OK, just a quick followup to this -- sorry if this is wasting net

is called "IDENTIFICATION".  The ReadPropertyValue function, along with  
the "IDENTIFICATION" property should give you the information you need.
