library. You can use the nwcm (NetWare Configuration Manager) command
to get or set values from the configuration database and get help messages
for and descriptions of configuration parameters. It is also used to set

nwconfig
A HP-UX file that contains configuration information for NetWare. The
NetWare daemon reads nwconfig to establish the NetWare environment. The
nwconfig file, usually found in the /etc/netware4 directory, contains all
NetWare Services parameters except volume parameters, which are stored in
the configuration file voltab in the same directory.
Parameters in nwconfig control:
• Total connections allowed on the NetWare server
• Number of service engines the NetWare daemon spawns
• Whether to allow hybrid users
• SPX startup
• NetBIOS startup
• NVT2 startup
• External IPX network numbers for NetWare server boards
• Internal network number
• Loading the Ethernet drivers
The parameters in nwconfig are set using the NetWare configuration
manager (nwcm) utility.
