Setting Up NDPS on Your Servers

During the initial installation and setup process, there are some issues you should be familiar with:


Rights Required for Configuring NDPS Installation

You must have the Supervisor right at the root of the tree because the schema will be modified. In order to install the resource database (in the SYS:NDPS\ RESDIR directory), the administrator must also have file system rights (rights to the volume) where it will be installed.

After the schema has been extended, a user installing another Broker must have at least Read, Write, Modify, and Create rights for the container where the Broker will reside.


Using iManage

To set up NDPS you will need to use iManage, a browser-based management tool for eDirectory. For more information about setting up iManage, see the Novell iManage Administration Guide.


Changing the Location of a Broker

NDPS allows you to customize your printing setup for maximum efficiency. You might occasionally want to change the location of one or more Brokers. For example, you might want a Broker to be in a different eDirectory container. If you want to change the location of a Broker after it has been created, you can use NetWare Administrator to move the Broker object into the desired container, provided you have Supervisor or equivalent rights to the new container.


Updating the AUTOEXEC.NCF File

After creating a Broker, you should add the following command to the AUTOEXEC.NCF file to automatically load the broker when the server is started.

load broker brokername.context
