Security and Network Setup System Guide • root: has super user access to the workstation. The initial password for this account is set during installation of the operating system and should be obtained from the Xerox service personnel. • xrxusr: the Xerox user name is the account from which the Xerox software runs. Use the Xerox user password for this account. Contact your Customer Service Representative if this is unknown • anonymous ftp user: an account to permit some clients to retrieve their software from the DocuSP controller using the TCP/IP communication protocol. This account will be set to Read Only access to the /export/home/ftp directory. Note that with security set to high all FTP operations are prohibited. This account may also be removed if the remote Xerox print client is not used. • Pxrxsvc: the account for remote diagnostics by Xerox service personnel. The DocuSP controller is accessed using PPP communications via a modem. This account is only created if remote diagnostics has been enabled. Print command line client from remote systems The following contains the user and client requirements when using the Xerox print command line client from remote systems. To allow non-root user command line clients to submit jobs to the DocuSP controller, the Sun workstation needs two pieces of information in its database: • Users must be listed in the password database. • The client workstations need to be described as trusted hosts for the user account. This allows remote operation commands at the DocuSP controller from a client workstation, such as rcp, without the requirement for supplying a password. List the names of the trusted host machines in the /etc/hosts.equiv file, or Set the /etc/ hosts.equiv file to trust all known workstations by setting the last line in the file to a plus sign (this is a security risk). It is not necessary for the user to have the following on the DocuSP controller: • Network home directory. • Meaningful home directory at the DocuSP controller. 4-12 Common Controller

Print command line client from remote systems
The following contains the user and client requirements when
using the Xerox print command line client from remote systems.
To allow non-root user command line clients to submit jobs to the
DocuSP controller, the Sun workstation needs two pieces of
information in its database:
Users must be listed in the password database.
The client workstations need to be described as trusted hosts
for the user account. This allows remote operation
commands at the DocuSP controller from a client
workstation, such as rcp, without the requirement for
supplying a password. List the names of the trusted host
machines in the /etc/hosts.equiv file, or Set the /etc/
hosts.equiv file to trust all known workstations by setting the
last line in the file to a plus sign (this is a security risk).
It is not necessary for the user to have the following on the
DocuSP controller:
Network home directory.
Meaningful home directory at the DocuSP controller.
