I added 5 NW5 servers to a WAN that started with one 4.11 server, before I finally upgraded the 4.11 server to 5. Study migration agents. Remember that native IP on NW5 is not compatible with NetWare/IP. Be prepared to ignore some error messages in DSRepair (NW5 NDS uses 'T' for Tree, which...
Print servers use a licensed connection. PSERVER uses one license. Each print server box or internal card (which connect a printer directly to the network) also uses a license. In NDPS, the NDPS manager object uses a license. Various server utilities (Novell and third party) may also use...
I started with a single server running NW 4.11 and added NW 5 servers while the [Root] master replica was on the 4.11 server. It can be done. Make sure, though, that you understand migration. You need to set up migration agents, and make sure your 4.10 server is completely up to date on...
I have used Console One on the servers for little things, like editing login scripts. This was easier than setting up my notebook at remote sites to run NWAdmin. Console One is still limited and clunky, but Novell intends to replace NetWare Administrator (NWAdmin) with Console One. The...
IPX uses SAP, so a workstation only has to listen to find a server to attach to. NetWare 5 IP uses SLP, which does not advertise like SAP. A workstation has to know where to look to find an SLP directory agent (which lists available servives) or a server that provides services. In the newer...
Have you configured SLP (SYS:ETC\SLP.CFG) and loaded SCMD?<br>
If not, see Novell TIDs 2951564 and 2949348. NetWare/IP on 4.11 does not give you connectivity to IP on NetWare 5 by itself. Be sure you understand SLP and SCMD. I have had a lot of grief with a mixed 4.11 and 5 environment over...
