Guest

The Guest address book provides unauthenticated users a place to store, add, and delete e-mail addresses that are typed at the device control panel. The user can gain access to the Guest address book from any digital sender or MFP that is configured to use HP DSS.

Global (Replicated LDAP/ABM)

The digital-sending device can be configured to import address book records from an LDAP server. The Global address book that is populated from LDAP is commonly referred to as Replicated LDAP. The HP Address Book Manager software provides functionality to populate the Global address book directly from user input or from files that are generated from other databases. See the Using the Address Book Manager section for more information.

Public distribution list

A Public distribution list is a named list of e-mail addresses that have been created in or imported by using the HP Address Book Manager and that are maintained in the Global address book. See the Using the Address Book Manager section for more information.

Using the Address Book Manager

The main purpose of the Address Book Manager (ABM) is to give an administrator a way to create and change the e-mail address books that are used by HP DSS. You must be an administrator to use the Address Book Manager.

NOTE The HP Address Book Manager must be installed separately. To install it, insert the HP DSS program CD, browse to the ABM folder, and run SETUP.EXE.

Specifically, an administrator can use the Address Book Manager to accomplish the following tasks:

View, add, change, and delete information in the public address books

View, add, change, and delete information in authenticated users' private address books

To open the Address Book Manager

1.From a computer, click Start, and then point to Programs. Point to Hewlett- Packard, and then click HP Address Book Manager. The Address Book Manager window appears.

2.In the Digital Sender name text box, type the DNS name or TCP/IP address for the HP DSS server, or select an existing DNS name or TCP/IP address from the drop-down list.

3.In the User name text box, type ADMINISTRATOR.

4.In the User password text box, type the password (if one is required), and then click OK. If all of the information is valid, the ABM main window appears.

See the online Help in the ABM Help menu for more information about using the ABM application.
