Security warning banners

Security warning banners are displayed when a user logs in or
telnets into the Xerox FreeFlow Print Server. This message
explains that only authorized users should be using the system
and that any others face the possibility of being monitored by law
enforcement officials.

NOTE: DRW (Xerox FreeFlow Print Server Remote Workflow) is
not impacted by security settings.

Disabling LP anonymous printing

You can choose to disable anonymous printing on all existing LP
printer queues that are associated with the Xerox FreeFlow Print
Server virtual printers. When anonymous LP is disabled, only
systems that have their IP address in the Xerox FreeFlow Print
Server controller /etc/hosts table are authorized to submit LP
requests. Answer “y” for yes to disable this printing option.

Remote shell internet service

If you are using the legacy Xerox print command line client (the
software is not distributed with this release), you will need to use
the remote shell internet service to transfer files to the Xerox
FreeFlow Print Server controller. However, if you are not using the
Xerox print command line client, it is strongly recommended that
the remote shell internet service is disabled. When these three
questions are answered, all remaining aspects of the "High"
security setting are implemented.

enable-ftp and disable-ftp

These options allow for temporary enabling and disabling FTP
alone. Will not persist through reboots. You must have FTP
enabled when using a Continuous Feed system, or FreeFlow®
Production Print and NetAgent.

FTP is also required for the Call for Assistance (CFA) feature. This
uses FTP to push IOT logs and a Xerox FreeFlow Print Server
outload back to the Print Server controller.

NOTE: Temporarily enable FTP through the Xerox FreeFlow Print
Server Setup > FTP/Remote Diagnostics menu option.
