Xstation 160 - Installation/Configuration

Question:

Caller can not boot XStation 160.  Just installed PTF to provide
Xstation 160 SMIT support.

Answer:

On the Xstation do the following:

  BASIC CONFIGURATION:
                BOOTP method = direct
        Terminal address = address of the Xstation
        Gateway address = blank
        Subnet mask = blank
        Configuration Server = ip_address_of_server:/etc/x_st_mgr/xs160/cfg
        Login Server XSTMD:9000
        File Server TFTP:/usr/lib/X11
        Font Server FILE:/usr/lib/X11/fonts
   
  ADVANCED CONFIGURATION
    PROTECTED CONFIGURATION
        UPDATE SERVER= DISABLE
                (this is since the /etc/x_st_mgr/xs160/upd files are
                currently only placeholders - there are not binary
                flash or post files available yet.  When updates
                occur - change this option back to enable).

IN SMIT on the RISC:

        Configure the network type selecting X160serv as the bootfile
        Configure the Xstation specifying the name, network type and the
        hardware address and default the rest of the values.

Customer also did not have the /usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc loaded so
we needed to delete that font path from the .cf file associated
with their network type in /etc/x_st_mgr and also in the file
associated with their ip address in /etc/x_st_mgr/xs160/cfg.
