updated to the newer version. Any security patch that is determined to have a negative impact to Xerox FreeFlow Print Server operation will not be added.
Customer Responsibilities
The administrator has the primary responsibility for maintaining the security of the network within the customer's site. It is important that network security is continuously monitored and maintained, and that appropriate security policies are established and followed.
The procedures outlined in this document assume a basic knowledge of UNIX, the vi editor, and general computing concepts. It is expected that the network administrator or system administrator responsible for network security understands the base commands (cd, chmod, cp, grep, kill, ln, ls, man, more, ps, etc.), and the UNIX directory path and filename structures shown in this document.
There is information within the text and in the appendix sections for reference to those who may not use UNIX often.
The Xerox FreeFlow Print Server operates on a Solaris OS. Enhancements have been made to increase security over the default OS configuration. Additional Solaris patches required by the Xerox FreeFlow Print Server are included as well. Several scripts are used to provide additional security for the Print Server. Not all scripts are public knowledge, only those that are public are defined in this document and these can be performed by the customer.
Xerox FreeFlow Print Server engineering will evaluate the latest Sun Security Alert Packs issued by Sun Microsystems and integrate these patches into the Print Server releases. Local customer support will be responsible for loading the latest Print Server software.
Xerox strongly recommends that the customer change passwords from the default settings since the ultimate security of the printing system resides with the customer.
NOTE: Please be aware that the Xerox Customer Support Personnel must have access to the new root password for service and support. It is the customer's responsibility to ensure that the root password is available for them.
