4.0 Software Configuration
This chapter describes how to configure the host computer to tell it
about your SpotLine terminal.
5.1 SCO XENIX/Unix
5.1.1 Use as a Telnet Session LAN Terminal
Ensure that you have a correctly working Ethernet controller card
properly installed and the networking software configured. Ethernet and
TCP/IP support is a standard part of all SCO releases.
For terminal only operation, no setup is needed at all on the host side,
though your system administrator may feel more comfortable adding the
terminal name and IP address to the /etc/hosts file. In fact, this
including in /etc/hosts is required if you will be using a printer attached
to the SpotLine as a system wide device. (See below).
5.1.2 Setting up the LAN Terminal for Printing
No special host setup is required if only local printing will be
performed, or if printing will only take place under program control
(see print commands in Ch 7).
If you wish to use a printer attached to the SpotLine M10
terminal in Telnet/LAN mode, perform the following:
Add the terminal to your /etc/hosts file, for example:
194.2.32.54 spot110_01
Start SCOADMIN.
