Oki 3100e manual Setting up the Unix server, IP address and host name in the host table

Setting up the UNIX server

IP address and host name in the host table

Using the following procedure, add the IP address and the host name (printer name) to the host table:

1.Get the IP address, which is not being used, from the network administrator and determine a unique name for this network card.

2.Add the IP address and the host name to the host table of the system. In almost all the UNIX systems, you can do this by adding the following line to /etc/hosts file:

<IP address> <host name>

3.Update the data base. If the system uses data base s u ch as Yel low Pages ( YP ) and N etwor k Information Services (NIS), these must be updated. In almost all the UNIX systems, you can do this by entering the following commands:

cd /var/yp make

Printer data base

To allow the printer to function correctly in the UNIX line printer system, you must create the /etc/printcap

file. In the printcap data base, information on the line printer directly connected to a certain machine and the printer(s) that can be used via network is registered.

For the details of the printcap, please refer to the UNIX On-Line Manual Page or Reference Manual.

This section describes how to create the /etc/printcap file, using an example in which the remote machine name, the printer name and the spool directory name were set to OKIPAGE 14i.

First, create a directory OKIPAGE 14i under the directory /ver/spool/lpd. The printcap entry is composed of fields enclosed with colons (:). The last field must end with a colon. Describe the name of the printer in the first field of each entry. Start from the left margin, without placing a colon at the head.
