FREEFLOW PRINT SERVER 6.0.xx
XEROX FREEFLOW PRINT SERVER 13
GETTING READY FOR THE PRINT SERVER INSTALLATION
W-3 data element definitions
NOTE: A new user will be created on the print server to accept
print jobs from command line clients at either a UNIX or PC
workstation, or both. The first five data elements, User Name,
User ID, User Password, Client IP Address, and User Comment,
are required for these clients.
User Name: A distinctive name that each user needs in order to
gain access to the UNIX OS, which in turn associates the name
to the correct User ID in a UNIX host password file that grants
access.
User ID: The client user identification number that will be used
to uniquely identify the new user. This is a decimal or binary
number that represents a user login account. If the host
machine is on an NIS network (see W–1), then the uids are
managed from a central master server.
Example:
/etc/passwd entry:
>bob:*:200:800:Bob Lin:/home/bob:/usr/bin
You can find the User ID by performing the following at the
UNIX client workstation:
• Non-NIS network. On the command line enter the following:
cat /etc/passwd|grep [Client users name]
• NIS network. On the command line enter the following:
ypcat password|grep [Client users name]
User Password: The command line client should be prepared
to provide this information during installation.
In this worksheet the term “client” refers to the actual
workstation that will be used to submit jobs to the print server,
and the term “user” refers to the individual submitting jobs from
that workstation.
Client IP Address: The unique Internet address of the
workstation that will be submitting jobs to the print server.
User Comment: Any additional information that may provide a
more unique identification of the new user.
Client Hostname: The hostname of the workstation that will be
used to submit jobs to the print server. This entry is used in the
hosts.equiv file that is created during install.
