Installing and configuring SCO Gateway for NetWare

See also the Guide to Gateways for LAN Servers, which contains detailed information on administering and using SCO® Gateway for NetWare®.

System requirements

To install and run SCO Gateway for NetWare, you need:

• One or more NetWare file servers (and, optionally, print servers) to connect to. Each must run NetWare Version 2.2, 3.11, 3.12, 4.01, 4.02, or 4.1, and should have the NetWare Loadable Module (NLM) installed and running where appropriate. See ``Installing and configuring the NetWare component of SCO Gateway for NetWare'' for more information.

• The SCO OpenServer system on which IPX/SPX is configured.

• Networking cards and cabling to connect the SCO OpenServer system to a LAN.

Configuring the UNIX component of SCO Gateway for NetWare

SCO Gateway for NetWare is automatically configured over IPX/SPX during a Fresh installation when both IPX/SPX and SCO Gateway for NetWare are installed and IPX/SPX configuration information is supplied. For all other scenarios, follow the instructions below.

Use the Network Configuration Manager to configure SCO Gateway for NetWare over IPX/SPX:

1. As root, enter scoadmin Network Configuration Manager.

2. Select the adapter already configured for use with IPX/SPX, to which you want to add SCO Gateway for NetWare.

3. Select Add protocol from the Protocol menu.

4. Select ``SCO Gateway for NetWare'' and click on Add.

5. When prompted, click on Yes to relink the kernel. Answer yes to the following two kernel questions.

6. Reboot your system.

Installing and configuring the NetWare component of SCO Gateway for NetWare

In general, NetWare file servers do not understand most UNIX filesystem operations. However, an NLM (NetWare Loadable Module) is provided that adds UNIX filesystem semantics to NetWare Version 3.11, 3.12, 4.01, or 4.02 file servers. If you have such a server, you should install this NLM on your file server. If you do not, you will only get DOS file semantics after mounting the filesystem. For more information on installing and using these NLMs, see ``NetWare Loadable Modules'' in the Guide to Gateways for LAN Servers.

Adding and removing SCO Gateway for NetWare printers

Use the Printer Manager to add and remove SCO Gateway for NetWare printers. See ``Adding a SCO Gateway for NetWare printer'' and ``Removing a SCO Gateway for NetWare printer'' in the Guide to Gateways for LAN Servers.
