Understanding Bindery Services
Planning Bindery Services
Inaccessible Information
Some NDS information is not available to users through bindery services.
This information includes, but is not limited to, the following items:
• E-mail name
• Phone number
• Print job configurations
• Aliases
• Profiles
• NDS login scripts
Limited Partitioning
The bindery context for a server can be set to a container that is part of a
partition stored on a different server. But, before you can use bindery
services, you must place a writable replica of the partition that includes the
bindery context on the bindery services-enabled server.
If you set the bindery context for a server to a container object that is not part
of a writable replica on that server, users will not be able to log in via
bindery services.
Changing Contexts
Avoid changing a server’s bindery context once you set it. Changing a
server’s bindery context leaves users in the original context without access
to bindery services. Changing the server’s bindery context can also cut off
access to print queues.
