Step E: Remove the temporary user boo.

Task 4: Edit the pslave.conf file
This is the main configuration file (/etc/portslave/pslave.conf) that contains most product
parameters and defines the functionality of the BLACK BOX ® Advanced Console Server.
Only three parameters need to be modified or confirmed for a basic configuration:
• conf.eth_ip (if you disabled DHCP)
• all.authtype
• all.protocol
A listing of the pslave.conf file with all possible parameters, as well as the files used to create
other configurations from parameters in this file, is provided in Appendix C - The pslave Con-
figuration File. Additional, optional modifications made to this file will depend on the config-
uration desired.
Tip. Using the vi editor, put the cursor in the first byte after “root:”, then type
“ct:x” plus <ESC>.
Tip. You can do a find for each of these parameters in vi, once you open this file
by typing / <your string> to search the file downward for the string specified
after the /.
