ADDCLIENT(1M)  —  Silicon Graphics

NAME

addclient − allow remote printing clients to connect

SYNOPSIS

/usr/spool/lp/etc/util/addclient client

DESCRIPTION

This command is used on an IRIS that has a printer attached to it.  The command registers a remote user’s machine, allowing it to connect to this machine in order to submit a printing request using lp (1) . 
client is the name of the remote machine.  This command modifies the .rhosts file in the home directory of user lp and possibly /etc/passwd.

Execute this command once for each client machine that will use the network to submit printing jobs on this machine.  This command is necessary when using TCP/IP protocols; it is not necessary when using XNS. 

FILES

/etc/passwd /usr/spool/lp/.rhosts
