1 This is the Solaris README file for netatalk.
3 1. SELECT COMPILER. This distribution is configured to build with
4 gcc. It should also work with cc. At the present time only cc
5 v5.0 and above can build the 64-bit kernel module.
7 1a. SELECT KERNEL TYPE. Edit sys/solaris/Makefile and set KCFLAGS to
8 include sparcv9 support if you run a 64-bit kernel, or leave it
9 commented out for a 32-bit kernel. Only UltraSPARC systems
10 running Solaris 7 and above support a 64-bit kernel. If you're
11 not sure what kernel you use, run "isainfo -v". You're running a
12 64-bit kernel if the result includes 64-bit (sparcv9), otherwize
15 NOTE: If you want both the 32-bit and 64-bit kernel modules to be
16 installed, first compile and install the version appropriate to
17 the kernel that you're currently running, then make clean,
18 compile and install the other version.
20 2. EDIT NETCONFIG. Add the following line to /etc/netconfig:
22 ddp tpi_clts - appletalk ddp /dev/ddp -
24 This makes the socket library aware of the AppleTalk protocol
27 3. INSTALL DRIVER. Since the STREAMS ddp driver must be installed as
28 root, we've separated that portion of the build. Type
32 to install the driver. This copies the driver and it's config file
33 into /usr/kernel/drv and /usr/kernel/strmod, runs "add_drv ddp" to
34 make the kernel aware of the new driver, and adds an rc file to
37 4. ATALKD.CONF. Under Solaris, you must create atalkd.conf, since
38 Solaris provides no method for determining the names of the
39 available interfaces. It is sufficent to name the available
40 interfaces in atalkd.conf, one per line. E.g.
44 on a line by itself, on many Suns. See atalkd(8).
46 5. PRINTING. To quote my Solaris documentation, "Setting up printing
47 services using the LP print service command-line interface is
48 complicated and error-prone." See your Solaris documentation for
49 similarly helpful statements.
51 Presuming that the Solaris print filters are installed (see your
52 helpful Solaris documentation), the following command adds the
53 printer named "bob" your to system and enables printing:
55 lpadmin -p bob -i /usr/local/atalk/etc/lp2pap.sh \
56 -I postscript -v /dev/null -T PS
59 This creates the directory /etc/lp/bob, in which you should create
60 a file called ".paprc" containing the NBP name of the printer. See
61 the "pap" man page for more information.
