Refer to the workstation's manual. If an incorrect IP address is entered, the network may go down or other damage may occur. Configure after consulting the network manager. 1. Log in as [root]. If you do not have superuser rights, the network manager should conduct the configuration. 2. Register the IP address and the host name in the /etc/hosts file. Example: for IP Address 192.168.29.127 and host name okiprinter 192.168.20.127 PRINTER 3. Use the ping command to confirm connection with the network card. Example: for host name okiprinter # ping PRINTER If there is no reply, there is a problem with the configuration of the IP address (the IP address has been already set manually or DHCP/RARP server may run), or with the network. Reset the network interface card settings to default and try to set a temporary IP address. If you still have the problem after resetting the network interface card, consult the network manager. 4. Register the host that was previously registered as the print server. Example: for the OKI printer registered as the print server a. Add the print server. # ruser -a -p okiprinter b.

AIX 4.1.5 configuration
The following explanation uses AIX4.1.5 and an OKI printer as examples.
The absolute path of commands and the method of configuring may differ
with the OS version. Refer to the workstation’s manual. If an incorrect IP
address is entered, the network may go down or other damage may occur.
Configure after consulting the network manager.
1.
Log in as [root]. If you do not have superuser rights, the network
manager should conduct the configuration.
2.
Register the IP address and the host name in the /etc/hosts file.
Example: for IP Address 192.168.29.127 and host name okiprinte
r
192.168.20.127
PRINTER
3.
Use the ping command to confirm connection with the network
card.
Example: for host name okiprinte
r
# ping
PRINTER
If there is no reply, there is a problem with the configuration of the IP
address (the IP address has been already set manually or DHCP/RARP
server may run), or with the network. Reset the network interface card
settings to default and try to set a temporary IP address. If you still have
the problem after resetting the network interface card, consult the network
manager.
4.
Register the host that was previously registered as the print server.
Example: for the OKI printe
r
registered as the print server
a.
Add the print server.
# ruser –a –p
okiprinte
r
b.
Activate the remote printer daemon.
