Configuring Terminal Start-Up Resources

resolution, an entry in the terminal's host file (Setup Connectivity Internet DNS Hosts) qualifies. For NFS, the directory MUST be exported with read/write/ execute permissions and with root mapping to root, not to nobody. For SMB, the server's guest account needs to be activated and guest users need to be able to connect to that share for full control.

MF_CFG

When using the flash build utility, this option provides the network services style path to the file that contains the list of images that are available for programming. The syntax for NFS is machine:/path, where machine is the IP address or DNS resolvable machine name for the server, and path is the full pathname. The syntax for SMB (Windows server) is //machine/share[/path], where machine is a DNS resolvable machine name, share is the share name, and path is an optional path within that share. For name resolution, an entry in the terminal's host file (Setup Connectivity Internet DNS Hosts) qualifies. For NFS, the directory must be exported with read/write/execute permissions and with root mapping to root, not to nobody. For SMB, the server's guest account needs to be activated and guest users need to be able to connect to that share for full control.

XFS

DHCP provides a standard option for font servers. The standard option (48) is a list of IP addresses and assumes that the font server will be on port 7100. If you want to define your font servers by machine name rather than IP address, or want to run them at a different port (HP/UX puts its font servers at 7000 by default), you must use this option. The data is a comma-delimited list of font servers, of the form: tcp/machine[:port], where the port is optional. The machine can have either an IP address or a DNS-resolvable name.

XDMCP

DHCP provides a standard option for XDMCP. The standard option (49) is a list of IP addresses that the terminal treats as XDMCP queries. If you wish either to provide XDMCP Indirect connections (where the other side of the connection provides a list of who you can connect to) or to provide a DNS-resolvable name, you can use the T1500-specific option.

BUDDY_BOOT

This flag is set by a DHCP/BOOTP server to distinguish a network boot from a Boot Server boot (otherwise known as “Buddy Boot”). A terminal that provides Boot Server service will set this; otherwise, this option should never be used.
