hey now,
i'm not much of a novell person. i've been sent to a job site where the customer is using novel versioin 4.34. he has a printer that is on the server that he needs to be removed.
i've had one class on novell 5.1. so i'm at a loss. i'm assuming i can go in through nwadmin on a client (using windows 98) and remove the printer.
what i need to know is:
1) how do i start up nwadmin on the client..assuming it has been installed there. how would i remove the printer using nwadmin?
2) if nwadmin has not been installed, how do i go about removing it on the server itself? does 4.34 have a GUI interface? if so, how do i access if from the command line? ie, at server> how do i get to gui and go about removing it?
