Configuring and Managing MPE/iX Internet Services (MPE/iX 6.5)

Chapter 1 17
Introduction to Internet Services
Overview of Internet Services
System Requirements
The Internet Services program and configuration files come with
version C.55.00 or greater, of the MPE/iX Fundamental Operating
Software (FOS). (The exception to this is the Telnet Client, which was
made available to customers on the earlier version of MPE/iX, C.50.00.)
As part of MPE/iX FOS, Internet Services can run on any Precision
Architecture-RISC model of the HP 3000. They are not available on
earlier “classic” HP 3000 computers running MPE V.
To run Internet Services, you must:
Configure one or more network interface link cards that support
TCP/UDP/IP communications protocol.
Configure the Net Transport communications software which uses
the TCP/UDP/IP protocol.
The necessary software and at least one TCP/UDP/IP network interface
card is delivered with each PA-RISC HP 3000 system. Internet Services
runs on top of the Net Transport software and therefore runs over any
type of link supported by Net Transport.
Verifying Installation of Internet Services Files
If you have installed or updated to version C.60.00 of MPE/iX, use the
following steps to verify that the Internet Services files exist on your
system:
1. If necessary, log on the system as MANAGER.SYS.
2. Enter a LISTFILE command for the NET group of the SYS account:
:LISTFILE @.NET.SYS
3. Check the list displayed on your screen and make sure that you have
the following files:
BOOTPD BOOTPQRY
BPTABSMP INETD
INSECSMP INSVXL
JINETD PROTSAMP
REMSH SERVSAMP
TFTPD
4. Run the Node Manager Maintenance utility to verify that you have
successfully installed the set of Internet Services files (except for
Telnet files, which you will check in Chapter 3 , “Telnet Service.”)
