TCP/IP Host Configuration (UNIX) TCP/IP Host Configuration (UNIX) Extracting files from unix.tar The file unix.tar contains all shell scripts and other files needed for network configuration in UNIX environments. The file is in UNIX tar format. The file is included with your printer's networking software. Listing the contents of unix.tar Type this command: tar tvf /directory-name/unix.tar Where directory-name is the mount point or the directory that contains the file. For example: tar tvf /mnt/unix.tar Extracting the files 1. Change (cd) to the directory on your workstation where you want the files to reside. 2. Type this command: tar xvf /directory-name/unix.tar Where directory-name is the mount point or the directory that contains the file. For example: tar xvf /mnt/unix.tar Adding the printer to the host table Add the printer's name to the host table and assign an IP address to the printer's name. Depending on your host system, you may do this one of three ways: s Use NIS (Name Information Server, formerly Yellow Pages). s Use DNS (Domain Name Server). s Edit a file (for example, /etc/hosts). For an example, see Example installation for a typical BSD UNIX system on page 27. PhaserShare Networking Manual 25

TCP/IP Host Configuration (UNIX)
Extracting files from
unix.tar
The file
unix.tar
contains all shell scripts and other files needed for network configuration
in UNIX environments.
The file is in UNIX
tar
format.
The file is included with your
printer’s networking software.
Listing the contents of
unix.tar
Type this command:
Where
directory-name
is the mount point or the directory that contains the file.
For
example:
Extracting the files
1.
Change (
cd
) to the directory on your workstation where you want the files to reside.
2.
Type this command:
Where
directory-name
is the mount point or the directory that contains the file.
For
example:
Adding the printer to the host table
Add the printer’s name to the host table and assign an IP address to the printer’s name.
Depending on your host system, you may do this one of three ways:
Use NIS (Name Information Server, formerly Yellow Pages).
Use DNS (Domain Name Server).
Edit a file (for example,
/etc/hosts
).
For an example, see
Example installation for a
typical BSD UNIX system
