How the RPSetup Utility Works
How the RPSetup Utility Works
When RPSetup runs, it reads configuration information from the remote spooler
supervisor, analyses the information, and writes new configuration information to the
local spooler supervisor.
RPSetup sets up connections to all valid locations on the remote node. To create
these connections, RPSetup creates locations on the local spooler with the same
names as locations on the remote node. RPSetup might also add required print
processes and devices to the local spooler configuration.
The functions of the RPSetup utility are illustrated in Figure 6-1.
