SUMMARY
=======

Pages 94, 95, and 96 of the File and Print Services for NetWare (FPNW) 3.51
Administrator's Guide list all registry parameters that are added to the
registry when FPNW is installed. The PServerPorts parameter is listed on page
95, and it works as documented. However, PServerPorts does not appear in the
registry.

MORE INFORMATION
================

PServerPorts is the number of logical print server ports (named
NetWareCompatiblePServerx, where x is a number starting from 0), provided in
Print Manager to represent NetWare printers. You can enter this parameter in the
registry if you want to create additional print queues on the server to send
jobs to NetWare printers. The range is 1 to 64, and the default is 2.

To create additional print queues for FPNW:
