Installing a printer driver to the Nd Broker
These steps use components of Netware and ND. If any of these steps do not work, you
will need to contact Novell for assistance.
1. Run NWADMN32.EXE.
2. Double-click the ND Broker Object.
3. Click the Resource Management (RMS) tab.
4. Click Add Resources.
5. Select the printer drivers for the operating system.
6. Click Add.
7. Browse to the .INF file of a printer.
NOTE: Some downloaded drivers will expand into several different
directories labeled disk1, disk2, and disk3. After downloading a
driver and expanding it, make sure all files are in the same
directory so that all files - disk 1 through disk 4 - are together in
the same directory.
8. Click OK.
The printer driver is added to the Server_Name>SYS:ND\RESDIR\PRNDRV\WIN95
directory on the server where the Broker Service is loaded (BROKER.NLM in the
SYS:SYSTEM).
NOTE: NPD files are not needed for newer printers. See Novell
document "Printer Not Listed in Printer Type Box" or "What are
NPR, NPX, and NPD Files?"
Log onto a server in Bindery Mode
Use the following procedure to overcome the default NDS login mode when logging on to a
Novell server.
Determine current connection
1. In order to see what kind of connection you have with the server, right click on red
Novell “N” located in the Systray.
2. In the menu that appears, select “Netware Connections….”
3. A new window will appear showing the Tree(s) you are connected too and what
server you are connected too. You will also see the type of connection. If it is a
bindery connection it will say “Bindery” under the heading of Authentication State.
Otherwise you will see “Directory Services” which is a NDS connection.
Client setup for bindery mode login
1. To view your mode of connection with the server, right click on the Novell logo
located in the Systray.
2. In the menu that appears, select Novell Client Properties.
