Network behavior preferences

Network behavior preferences let you configure NetWare® Login user options, so that PlanetPress Workflow can access your Novell® NetWare network. The following procedure also lets you choose the Universal Naming Convention (UNC), which removes inconsistencies when accessing paths on Novell and other networks.

Preferences

• NetWare Login: Check to enable the options PlanetPress Workflow requires to access NetWare resources. When you select this option, you must enter values in the Username and Password fields, and in the NDS options group (these properties are optional) below to properly log in to NetWare.
  • Username: Enter your NetWare user name. This is the user the PlanetPress Workflow service uses to log in to NetWare at run-time. The service accesses resources as configured for this user.
  • Password: Enter the NetWare password corresponding to the user name you entered in the previous text box.
  • Tree: Enter the NetWare Directory Services (NDS) tree where the user resides. This is the user you entered in the user name text box. Click Trees to navigate to the desired tree. You must enter a value for the Tree text box.
  • Context: Enter the context on the NDS tree where the user you enter in the user name text box resides.
  • Server: Enter the server where the NDS tree you entered in the Tree text box resides. You do not have to specify a server if there is only a single configured server on your network. Click Servers to navigate to the desired server on which the NDS tree containing the user resides.

Expand folder paths in UNC (Universal Naming Convention) format: Select to expand all paths used in the configuration to UNC. This converts map drives such as “f:\, to absolute paths referenced from a server in the format “\\server-name\shared-resource-pathname”. When you select this option, the next time you configure a task after editing properties and clicking OK in its properties dialog box, entered paths are expanded to UNC format.
