Introduction Server Features Easy Configuration The EZWebCon utility (provided on CD-ROM) allows users to configure the Server from a any host machine running the Java Virtual Machine (JVM). Note: You must be Supervisor to run the EZWebCon utility on a NetWare client. Remote Configuration The Server can be logged into and remotely configured using one of the following methods: r Digital's NCP and TSM facilities r The Telnet console port, similar to the NCP remote console r The network login feature, which allows managers to log into the Server via TCP/IP, LAT, and NetWare. r EZWebCon, a configuration application that runs on any host computer running the Java Virtual Machine (JVM). Command Line Interface A simple but powerful command interface is provided for both users and system managers. The Server operating code is downloaded automatically at power-up, making software upgrades as easy as copying a file. The Server stores its operating software permanently on-board, so it does not need to download code unless new versions become available. Servers can also be configured to request a downloaded configuration file at boot time. The Command Reference chapter of this reference manual describes the commands available in the Server's local command line mode. These commands control port and server configuration Note: See the Command Reference for more information on the command line, command recall, and command completion features. Context-Sensitive Help Context-sensitive on-line help is available at any point. You may type "HELP" by itself for overall help, "HELP command" for help on a specific command, or a partial command line followed by a question mark for help on what is appropriate at that particular point. Note: See Help on page 12-6 for more information. Host-Initiated Connections The Server may be configured to provide its attached devices as services to other nodes, allowing hosts to share printers. AppleTalk, LAN Manager, LAT, NetWare, and TCP/IP hosts can queue jobs to Server services simultaneously. The optional RTEL host software provides both printer backend access and a named pipe interface to the Server from TCP/IP hosts. Security The Server includes several configurable security features. They include: r Group codes, which allow the Server to act as a filter to limit the user's knowledge of, and access to, specific services. 1-3
