♦ The server name is less than 15 characters long.
♦ The server does not have the same name as any Novell NetWare fileserver on
your network.
♦ The server does not have the same name as any of the print servers configured
for your Novell network.
♦ The server does not have the same name as any Microsoft Networking client or
server.
Uppercase and lowercase letters are not distinguished in print server names.
It is recommended that you limit your print server name to 15 characters, chosen
from the letters
A
to
Z
, the digits
0
to
9
, and the hyphen (“
-
”) character. Names that
violate this recommendation may not be usable with some networks.
To change your print server’s name,
1. Select the print server in the EtherP Admin main window’s server name
display (or extended server display).
2. Choose Server Device... from the Configuration menu, or press the
Configure Server button in the toolbar. (If you have already assigned a
password to the server, you will have to enter it at this point.) EtherP Admin
will display the Server Device Configuration window.
3. In the Server Name field, enter the name you have chosen for the server, and
press OK.
4. Choose Save Configuration from the Configuration menu, or press the Save
Configuration button on the toolbar. This will store the new settings into the
print server and restart it.
Your print server will now be accessible under the new name.
Setting a Password for Your Print Server
Unless you set a password, anyone on your network will be able to change your print
server’s settings. If your local network is connected to the Internet, then it may be
possible to change your print server’s configuration from anywhere in the world
using the telnet interface. To protect your print server’s integrity, you should set a
password for your print server, and record it in a safe place.
