Configuring UnixWare for backup/restore from NetWare

To set up UnixWare for backup by NetWare, you need to configure the tsad(1) daemon.

1. From the system console or a ``Terminal'' window, log in to UnixWare as root.

2. Make sure the ``nsu'', ``nuc'', and ``nwsup'' packages are installed on your system. Do this by entering the following command:
   
   pkginfo nsu nuc nwsup

   and looking for the package names in the command output.

   An error is displayed if one or more of these packages is not installed.

   These packages install and configure the IPX/SPX and TCP/IP protocols, as well as providing the NetWare UNIX Client and NLM software.

3. Create or edit the file /etc/unixtsa.conf.

   This file must contain the name of at least one NetWare server known to your UnixWare system and the protocol loaded and used on the server.

   Only the TCP and SPX protocols are supported. You can include both a TCP and an SPX entry for those servers that have both protocols available.

   NOTE: This file may also contain localization information for the UnixWare TSA and the NetWare server; see unixtsa.conf(4).

   You will be able to backup UnixWare:

   • from any server specified in /etc/unixtsa.conf

   • from any server or workstation connected to a server specified in /etc/unixtsa.conf

   A typical unixtsa.conf file might look like this:

   NWserver1	tcp
   NWserver2	spx
   NWserver3	spx
   NWserver3	tcp
   

   As shown above, the same server can be listed twice, with one entry for each protocol. For all servers in unixtsa.conf that are listed as using the tcp protocol, ensure that the server name and IP address is available either through the /etc/hosts file, the Network Information Service (NIS), or the Domain Name Service (DNS).

4. Stop (if necessary) and restart the tsad daemon process by entering:
   
   sh /etc/rc2.d/S70unixtsa stop
   sh /etc/rc2.d/S70unixtsa start

   If the tsad process is not running, the stop command will tell you so; continue by entering the start command as shown. Whenever you change the unixtsa.conf file, you must stop and start the tsad daemon so that your changes take effect. (This also happens the next time you reboot the system.)
