AIX 4.1.5 configuration

The following explanation uses AIX4.1.5 and an C7400 printer as
examples. The absolute path of commands and the method of configuring
may differ with the OS version. Refer to the workstation’s manual. If an
incorrect IP address is entered, the network may go down or other damage
may occur. Configure after consulting the network manager.

1.

Log in as [root]. If you do not have superuser rights, the network
manager should conduct the configuration.

2.

Register the IP address and the host name in the /etc/hosts file.

Example: for IP Address 192.168.29.127 and host name C7400

192.168.20.127 C7400

3.

Use the

ping command to confirm connection with the network card.

Example: for host name C7400

# ping C7400

If there is no reply, there is a problem with the configuration of the IP
address (the IP address has been already set manually or DHCP/RARP
server may run), or with the network. Reset the network interface card
settings to default and try to set a temporary IP address. If you still have
the problem after resetting the network interface card, consult the
network manager.

4.

Register the host that was previously registered as the print server.

Example: for the C7400 registered as the print server

a. Add the print server.

# ruser –a –p C7400

b. Activate the remote printer daemon.

# startsrc –s lpd

# mkitab ‘lpd:2:once:startsrc –s lpd’

5.

Add the print queue using the smit command.
