- NetWare(R) Client(tm) for Mac(tm) OS 5.11 Installation Guide
-
- NetWare Client for Mac OS gives Mac OS-based workstations unparalleled
- access to Novell NetWare and NetWare Directory Services(tm). NetWare
- Client for Mac OS enables Mac OS users to locate NetWare file and print
- services in a NetWare Directory Services tree. Mac OS users can access
- NetWare file and print services, regardless of whether AppleTalk(R) and
- NetWare for Macintosh are running on the servers on which the services
- are located.
-
- This guide provides very basic installation instructions. For more detailed
- instructions, refer to the NetWare Client for Mac OS user guide on the CD.
-
-

-
-
- Installing the NetWare Client for Mac OS Software on a Mac OS-based
- Workstation
-
- To install NetWare Client for Mac OS, follow these steps after closing all
- open applications:
-
- 1. Insert the NetWare Client for Mac OS CD into a CD-ROM drive connected
- to your Mac OS-based workstation.
-
- 2. Double-click the NW Client Installer icon.
-
- The NW Client Installer is located at the root of the CD.
-
- 3. Click the Install button at the bottom of the NW Client Installer
- window.
-
- An alert warns you that the workstation will restart after the
- installation is complete.
-
- 4. Click the Yes button.
-
- To prevent the installation from taking place, click the No button.
-
- 5. When the software has been installed, click the Restart button to
- restart the workstation.
-
-
- Installing MACFILE.NLM on the NetWare Server
-
- NetWare Client for Mac OS includes one component, MACFILE.NLM, that you
- should install on the server. When you install MACFILE.NLM, additional
- support files are also installed on the server.
-
- Because you install MACFILE.NLM and the other server components on the
- SYS volume of a server, you must have sufficient rights to copy files to
- the SYS volume.
-
- Note: When you install the server software, the Macintosh name space is
- automatically installed on the SYS volume. If you do not want to install
- the name space on the SYS volume, see "Installing the Macintosh Name
- Space on a Server Volume Other than SYS" in this document.
-
- To install the server components from the NetWare Client for Mac OS CD in
- the workstation CD-ROM drive to the server, follow these steps:
-
- 1. After the client components have been installed, locate the NetWare
- Directory Services Tree icon in the upper right corner of the
- workstation screen and choose the Login option in the Directory
- Services menu.
-
- 2. Enter the requested information in the dialog that appears, including
- your name, password, context, and the name of the tree that contains the
- server where you want to install the server components.
-
- The Tree and Context information might already be entered by default.
- Select the More Options button, if all of the items do not appear.
-
- 3. Once you are logged into the Directory tree, you need to mount a
- NetWare server SYS volume on your workstation desktop so you can
- install the server components.
-
- The NetWare Client Utilities Folder is installed at the root of the
- workstation's startup volume.
-
- To mount a volume, open the NetWare Directory Browser application in
- the NetWare Client Utilities Folder on the workstation. Then, locate the
- volume's icon in the Items pane of the NetWare Directory Browser
- window and double-click it.
-
- If you do not see any volumes, make sure you are at the correct context
- and you have the NCP Server and Volume object types selected in the
- Show Types pane of the Browser window.
-
- 4. Once the SYS volume is mounted, locate the SERVER folder on the
- NetWare Client for Mac OS CD.
-
- 5. Copy the SERVER folder from the CD to the SYS volume of the server.
-
- 6. Go to the server console or use the NetWare Client for Mac OS Remote
- Console utility to complete the server component installation.
-
- If you choose to use the server console, go directly to Step 7. If you
- choose to use the Remote Console utility, you must install and configure
- additional client and server components. To do this, continue reading
- this step.
-
- Remote Console is the Macintosh version of the DOS RCONSOLE utility.
- Remote Console requires RSPX.NLM and REMOTE.NLM to be loaded at the
- server to function. To configure and run the Remote Console utility, see
- Chapter 12, "Using Remote Console on a Mac OS-based Workstation" in
- the NetWare Client for Mac OS user guide. See "Using the Online
- Documentation" in this document for information about accessing the
- NetWare Client for Mac OS user guide.
-
- Remote Console is not installed on the Macintosh workstation when you
- perform an Easy Install. To install Remote Console, locate the NW Client
- Installer on the CD. The NW Client Installer is located at the root of the
- CD. Double-click the NW Client Installer icon. Click the Custom button.
- Highlight the Remote Console Install option in the list of install
- packages. Click the Install button.
-
- 7. At the server console (or Remote Console window), type the following
- command:
-
- LOAD INSTALL
-
- 8. Choose the Product Options option in the Installation Options menu.
-
- 9. Choose the Install a Product Not Listed option in the Other Installation
- Actions menu.
-
- 10. Press <F3> and enter the path to where you copied the server files.
-
- If the SERVER folder was copied to the root of the SYS volume on a
- NetWare 4.1 server, the path would be:
-
- SYS:SERVER\INSTALL
-
- 11. From the Install NetWare Client for Mac OS menu, select the Easy
- Install option.
-
- The Easy Installation Summary screen appears.
-
- 12. Press <Esc> to close the summary.
-
- 13. Select the Proceed with the Installation option.
-
- 14. Upon completion of the installation, the Other Installation Actions
- menu appears. Press <Esc> twice and choose Yes from the Exit Install
- menu.
-
- 15. At the server console, type the following command:
-
- LOAD MACFILE
-
- By default, the Macintosh name space is added only to the SYS volume. The
- Macintosh name space allows Macintosh files to be stored on the volume.
-
- To add the Macintosh name space to other volumes, load the NWCMACC.NLM
- at the server console and choose Select Volumes to Add the Macintosh
- Name Space from the Configuration Options menu. Add the name space to
- the selected volumes.
-
- When you are finished installing the server software, you can delete the
- Server folder you copied to the server in Step 5, or you can keep that
- folder on the server and use it to install the NetWare Client for Mac OS
- server software on other NetWare servers.
-
-
- Installing the Macintosh Name Space on a Server Volume Other than SYS
-
- When you install the server software, the Macintosh name space is
- automatically installed on the server's SYS volume. If you do not want to
- install the name space on the SYS volume, use the following method to
- install the server software.
-
- 1. Load Install.
-
- 2. Select the Product Options option.
-
- 3. Select the Install a Product not Listed option.
-
- 4. Press <F3> and enter the path to where you copied the server files.
-
- If the SERVER folder was copied to the root of the SYS volume on a
- NetWare 4.1 server, the path would be:
-
- SYS:SERVER\INSTALL
-
- 5. Select the Custom Install option.
-
- 6. Select the Select Volumes to Add the Macintosh Name Space option.
-
- A list of the volumes that currently do not have the Macintosh name
- space appears. Any volume with an x next to it will have the name space
- added to it. The SYS volume is selected by default.
-
- 7. Press <Enter> to deselect the SYS volume.
-
- Note: This step does not install the Macintosh name space on the SYS
- volume. It also does not install the client software to
- SYS:/PUBLIC\CLIENT\MAC, because the name space is required to install
- this.
-
- You can install the client software as mentioned in "Installing the
- NetWare Client for Mac OS Software on a Mac OS-based Workstation" in
- this document, or you can use the MACCLNT.EXE file. For instructions
- about using this file, go to the SERVER\MACCLNT directory on the CD and
- read the README file.
-
- 8. Press <Esc> and save the changes.
-
- 9. Select the Proceed with the Installation option.
-
- 10. Press <Esc> when the "Unable to create directory
- SYS:Public:Client:Mac" message appears.
-
- 11. Press <Esc> when the "Unable to create directory
- SYS:Public:Client:Mac:English" message appears.
-
- 12. Exit INSTALL.
-
- 13. Load MACFILE.NLM.
-
-
- Installing on Additional Workstations
-
- To install NetWare Client for Mac OS on a workstation that does not have
- access to a network or a CD-ROM drive, you must use an installation
- diskette. "Making an Optional Installation Diskette" in this document
- provides instructions on how to create the diskette.
-
- Once you have created the diskette, insert the diskette in the workstation
- disk drive and double-click the NW Client Installer icon.
-
-
- Making an Optional Installation Diskette
-
- To make an installation diskette, copy the NW Client Installer icon to a
- formatted, unlocked high-density diskette. Insert this diskette in the disk
- drive on the workstation where you want to install NetWare Client for Mac
- OS. Double-click the NW Client Installer icon to install the software.
