Configuring Advanced Server for UNIX

Configuration for shared client printer

Comments:

The delclipr command removes all of the client printer configuration information from the Advanced Server and the configured Spooler. The print destination printername is removed from the configured Spooler. If an Advanced Server shared printer queue exists with print- ername as the only member, the shared printer queue is also deleted.

Example:

To delete the client printer pc2, type

delclipr pc2

PRSRV option guidelines

Username and password

i

The shared printer configured with PRSRV should not have a password. The filter program configured on Advanced Server for UNIX then logs on without a password with the username <system name>.cli in the domain in which the server has been set up. If, for example, the system name of a server is displayed with uname -nas server1, the filter program logs on with server1.cli.

This username must not exist in the domain.

If the system is a server (OS/2, Windows NT or UNIX), a user with this username must not be located in the local account database. Only then the filter program will receive the rights for the user GUEST in the user group

GUESTS.

If a user with this username exists already, or if a password has been configured for the shared printer, the following steps must be carried out:

ÊSet the correct values for the DOMAIN, USERNAME, and PASSWORD parameters in the

/var/opt/lanman/clipr/config/<Client name> file.

Please note that in the case of an OS/2 server, the rights for the shared printer

iare not set automatically for USERS and GUESTS. Furthermore, blank usernames are not accepted here.

Using these entries the filter program of Advanced Server for UNIX can log on in the domain.

Stopping the PC or terminating the Print Manager

!

If the PC is to be switched off or the Print Manager is to be closed, the associated

“spool-out” must be stopped beforehand on the spool system.

 

 

To do this, use xpchange -dev <device> -so OFF for example (for Spool V4.x), or

 

disable <device> (for AT&T Spool).
