Installation guide

In the Configuring Interfaces dialog box, the fields under To Obtain IP
Address are relevant for all interfaces.
• Printer Configuration
In the Local Printer Settings dialog box and the Remote Printer Settings
dialog box, the aliases in the Printer Aliases field must be separated by
vertical bars because spaces are allowed in an alias.
• Shutdown
The /usr/sbin/shutdown command now sends the Shutdown
Message each time a reminder is sent of the time remaining before the
system is shut down.
The /etc/nologin file is not created until immediately before the
shutdown occurs.
System shutdown messages are sent to all users that are locally or
remotely logged in to the system being shut down. Additionally, if the
"Broadcast to NFS Clients" option is selected, shutdown messages are
broadcast to all hosts that are NFS clients of the system being shut down.
• Disk Configuration
The following corrected definitions replace the definitions in the glossary
for Disk Configuration.
– Skew
A deviation from a reference direction, either by design or in response
to lateral forces.
– Track skew
On a disk, the sector skew per track. The skew is the angle that
sector 0 of the track changes from an imaginary radius line, due to a

for BIND Configuration:

information, interprets the responses, and passes the information to

either maintains the master copy of the hosts database for the zone or
