System V Printer Configuration
–s
Indicates the command is being run to configure the directory
for System V print.
–w ACLBindPassw
d
Specifies the password to ACL–protect the print subtree on the
directory.
Client–Side Options
Flag Parameter Description
–c Indicates the command is being run to configure clients to use
the directory for System V print information.
–d PrintBindDN Specifies the print bind DN. The default print bind DN is
ou=print,cn=aixdata. The print bind DN to use during client
configuration is displayed at the end of the server setup of the
mkprtldap command.
–h Directory
Server
Hostname
Hostname of the Directory server set up to store System V print
information.
–U Undo a previous configuration of a client
Usage
Flag Parameter Description
? Displays usage information for the mkprtldap command.
Examples
1. To configure a new installation of Directory for System V print with the administrator DN
cn=root and root password, enter:
mkprtldap –s –a cn=root –p root –w aclpasswd
where the ACLBindpassword is the password used so that the ACL protects the print
subtree. The ACL bind password is specified during the configuration of System V print
on the directory. This configuration also sets the directory administrator’s DN and
password to cn=root and root. Running the command sets up a suffix and top–level
container object cn=aixdata. The print subtree (ou=print) is created under this AIX
information tree (cn=aixdata object).
2. To configure System V print on a machine with a configured Directory server, the
administrator DN and password are required. For example, if the existing administrator’s
DN and password are cn=admin and passwd, enter:
mkprtldap –s –a cn=admin –p passwd –w pass123wd
3. To configure System V print under a preexisting node on the Directory server (for
example, o=ibm,c=us), the mkprtldap command provided the –d flag option. This is an
advanced option recommended only when it is necessary to store the print information
under an existing node on the directory. The recommended option is to store the print
subtree in the default location on the directory by not specifying the –d option.
The administrator DN and password are required to configure System V print on the
directory. Assume the existing administrator’s DN and password are cn=admin and
passwd. Enter:
mkprtldap –a cn=admin –p passwd –w acl123passwd –d o=ibm,c=us
Running the command creates an AIX information tree (cn=aixdata) under the
o=ibm,c=us object. The print subtree is created under this new object (cn=aixdata,
o=ibm, c=us).
4. To configure System V print information under a separate AIX information tree when the
directory contains an existing AIX information tree for other subsystem–specific
