Date: Tue, 15 Feb 1994 22:43:06 -0500 Hi, is all that's required to bring up a machine as a cpuserver; - enter "auth/adduser -h -p newmachinename" from an authentication server.(then give newmachine a password) - enter the newmachine into cpurc - enter the changes of newmachine in /lib/ndb/local and run mk again?? Anything else? (Hope I remembered all the changes. Keep getting "authentication failed"). We've got an ipx that's been used as a terminal fine, but has been fighting the idea of changing to a cpuserver. ;) (The fs and other cpu/auth server are sparc2's). AND, how might I get the pwd into my prompt? I know it's kind of weenie, but I'm used to it! TIA. Regards, --Jerry
