l Protocol options group
l Port: Select the TCP port to use. The default port is 8080, the official HTTP alternate port, so as not to interfere with
the standard HTTP port (80). To block any regular HTTPtraffic (for example if only using HTTPSconnections) the port
can be set to 0.
l Time out: Set the timeout period in seconds. The default value is 120 seconds.
l Verbose log: Select to enable to keep a verbose log. Note that a communication log is generated whether or not this
option is selected. If you use a secure connection, the log will contain extra information.
l Enable server for SSLrequests:Check this option to enable secure data exchange over the Web. This enables the
boxes below and lets you specify your secure communication settings.
l Root certificate: Enter the name of your root certificate file (including its complete absolute path). In many
cases, the root certificate and certificate will be one and the same.
l Certificate: Enter the name of your root certificate file (including its complete absolute path).
l Key: Enter the name of your key file (including its complete absolute path).
l Password: If your key file uses a password, enter it in this box.
l Encryption protocol: Choose your cryptographic protocol (SSLor TSL).
l Disable SOAPServer:Check to disable all SOAPServer functionality.
SSL is used to accept secured, encrypted requests from web clients and requires a certificate delivered by an
approved authority. SSLcan also be called HTTPS, though that is a misnomer. For more information on SSLand how
to purchase a certificate, please see Q10694 on SSL.com.
LPD Input Preferences
LPD input preferences control certain functions of the PlanetPress Suite Workflow Tools LPD Server service, which in turn has
an impact on LDP input tasks performed by PlanetPress Suite Workflow Tools on a given computer. The LPD Server service
receives jobs using TCP/IP from LPD servers.
For information on the properties set in individual LDP input tasks, refer to “LPD Input Task Properties”.
The available LPD input preferences are as follows:
l Protocol options group
l Log all Winsock and network messages: Select to have PlanetPress Suite Workflow Tools keep a log of
all Winsock and other network messages that occur through the LPD service. These are messages related to
jobs being sent from other systems through LPR, and being received by PlanetPress Suite Workflow Tools via
LPD. Since these messages can accumulate, you have the option of not logging them. Log files are kept in the
Log folder, which is located in the PlanetPress Suite installation folder. They are named lpddate.log, where
date is the current date in the yyyymmdd numerical format. Note that changing this option also affects the log
displayed in the PlanetPress Suite Service Console.
l No source port range restriction: Select to remove any restrictions on the port of the LPR client computer
that PlanetPress Suite Workflow Tools accepts data files from. Clear to have PlanetPress Suite Workflow Tools
only accept data files sent from ports ranging between 721 and 731 on the LPR client computer.
l Strict RFC 1179 control file: Select to disable control file extensions the LPD service implements for some
flavors of UNIX and LPR. This enforces the basic Line Printer Daemon protocol.
l Enable BSD compatibility mode: Select to have the LPD service emulate a BSD UNIX server. Although RFC
1179 is supposed to describe the BSD LPD/LPR protocol, and the LPD input in PlanetPress Suite Workflow Tools
is RFC1179-compliant, there are some incompatibilities between the RFC and the BSD implementation. This
option compensates for some of these incompatibilities. If you are not sure about the source of your output,
clear this option.
