Installing HP Distributed Print Service

Prerequisites for HPDPS Installation

A list of prerequisites follows:

• HP-UX 10.20 or a subsequent release must be installed on each

HP-UX system that will contain a client or server.

• HPDPS uses two entries that must exist in the service name

database, /etc/services.These are:

pdclientd 6874/tcp

pdeventd 6875/tcp

If you are upgrading from a pre-10.20 system, you must manually add

the above entries. If, however, your system was cold installed at 10.20

or for a subsequent release, these entries will have been added

automatically.

If your system is using NIS or NIS+, make sure the above entries

exist in the NIS or NIS+ servers’ service name database.

• If HPDPS is to be executed in the DCE Extended Environment, the

following DCE servers must be installed and running within the DCE

cell that will contain the host running HPDPS clients or servers:

— HP-UX DCE Security Server

— HP-UX DCE Cell Directory Server
