<h3 id="static">PC client LMHOSTS static configuration files</h3>
|
|
<p><span class="bold">Connecting your PC Client with LMHOSTS</span></p>
|
|
<p>PC client operating systems can provide static configuration files that
|
|
map server system names to TCP/IP addresses. These files are typically more
|
|
difficult to manage than a solution that involves more centralized control
|
|
(for example, a DNS or WINS server). This difficulty results because your
|
|
network administrator must configure each PC client individually. Static configuration
|
|
files are very useful, however, in large, distributed networks. In this environment,
|
|
clients and servers exist in different subnets (network segments) and possibly
|
|
different workgroups (domains). Static configuration files help clients locate
|
|
servers.</p>
|
|
<p>All PC clients supported by iSeries NetServer™ provide the <tt class="xph">LMHOSTS</tt> file
|
|
that can map server system names to IP addresses. The <tt class="xph">LMHOSTS</tt> file
|
|
contains IP addresses and server system names. You can use these files to
|
|
map the IP address for both the iSeries server and iSeries NetServer for clients. Mapping
|
|
the IP address for both iSeries and iSeries NetServer allows clients to find the iSeries server
|
|
and iSeries NetServer in a large, distributed network environment.</p>
|
|
<p>You may also add an entry into the <tt class="xph">LMHOSTS</tt> file that
|
|
points to a <tt class="xph">LMHOSTS</tt> file that is administered centrally on the iSeries
|
|
server. By pointing all clients to the central file on the iSeries server, you
|
|
need to maintain only one <tt class="xph">LMHOSTS</tt> file for the network.</p>
|
|
<p>You can find more information about <tt class="xph">LMHOSTS</tt> files in the sample <tt class="xph">LMHOSTS</tt> file that is provided with your Windows operating system. Additional
|
|
information is available in your operating system documentation.</p>
|
|
<p><span class="bold">Configuring your PC Client with LMHOSTS</span></p>
|
|
<p><span class="bold">If you are using the <tt class="xph">LMHOSTS</tt> file</span>, then
|
|
you must configure <tt class="xph">LMHOSTS</tt> with the system name and IP address
|
|
for iSeries NetServer to ensure client connectivity. To add a preloaded entry to the <tt class="xph">LMHOSTS</tt> file, follow these steps:</p>
|
|
<ol type="1">
|
|
<li>Go to the <tt class="xph">\WINNT\system32\drivers\etc</tt> directory.</li>
|
|
<li>Add the following entry to the <tt class="xph">LMHOSTS</tt> file:
|
|
<pre class="xmp">TCP/IP-address iSeries-NetServer-server-name #PRE
|
|
</pre>For example:
|
|
<pre class="xmp">10.5.10.1 QNETSERVER #PRE</pre>If the iSeries NetServer is a Logon
|
|
Server:
|
|
<pre class="xmp">10.5.10.1 QNETSERVER #PRE #DOM:netdomain (netdomain is the domain name that
|
|
the Logon Server services).</pre></li></ol>
