HP SureStore CD-ROM Server/Tower User's Guide - 5967-2149
Setup for UNIX Networks (NFS) 6-5
Setting Up the Network Time Protocol
An alternative to manual configuration is automatic time syn-
chronization using the Network Time Protocol (NTP, as defined
by RFC 1769). Set these configuration parameters:
Server/CD-ROM
Access Rights
Access restrictions are set individually for each protocol. If you
use other network protocols in addition to NFS, consult the other
chapters for setup of those protocols. (The default settings in
some protocols provide full access rights to all users, so we rec-
ommend that you disable all protocols not being used. If you do
not, a user accessing the server through such a protocol may be
given full access rights, regardless of the security configurations
in other protocols.)
The HP CD-ROM server can be configured to restrict user access
to CD-ROM drives, to individual CDs, and to the server configu-
ration. You can limit the number of users simultaneously access-
ing any CD to comply with user-license restrictions. And we
recommend that you restrict access to the config and volumes
directories on the server.
For general access-control options not explained here, see the
description of the access rights starting on page 7-5. If you use a
web browser for configuration, one of the options described later
in this section, online Help is available to you for explanation.
