ABSTRACT:Configure Connections to Remote Systems
	This task allows you to maintain the connections through
	which the local LP print service can exchange print requests
	with remote systems.  Through it, you are allowed to add new
	connections, list existing connections, modify existing
	connections and remove existing connections.

	NOTE: The actual functioning of these remote connections is
	handled by the Network Services installed on this machine.
	These remote connections MUST also be defined through Network
	Services for this facility to function.

menu:L1:Add a New System Connection
	This task allows you to add a new remote system connection to
	the LP print service on this machine.

	NOTE: The actual functioning of this remote connection is
	handled by the Network Services installed on this machine.
	This remote connection MUST also be defined through Network
	Services for this new connection to function.

menu:L2:Display Available System Connections
	This tasks allows you to display the system connections that 
	have been added to this system. It also displays a summary
	of the definition of each connection.

menu:L3:Modify a System Connection
	This task allows you to modify a connection that has already
	been added.

menu:L4:Remove a System Connection
	This task allows you to remove an existing remote connection.

add:F1:System name
	You must enter the name of a remote system that you wish to
	identify to the Print Service as an available remote system.
	This will allow you to be able to send print jobs to that
	system and receive print jobs from that system.

	This name should already be defined thru Network Services on
	this machine but no validation of this occurs.  The name
	entered must be less than 256 characters long.

	There is no default for this field.

add:F2:Scheduler type
	Select the type of LP scheduler that exists on the remote
	system.  The only two valid choices are s5 (System V) or bsd
	(SunOS).

	The default for this field is s5.

add:F3:Connection timeout
	Specify the time period in minutes that the print service
	should allow a network connection to be idle.  That is, if
	the connection to the remote system is idle (ie.  there is no
	network traffic) for this number of minutes, then drop the
	connection.  When there is more work the connection will be
	reestablished.

	Legal entries here are n, 0 or any integer greater than 0.
	The value n means never timeout (ie.  once established, the
	connection is never dropped).  The value 0 means as soon as
	the connection is idle, drop it.  Any other integer value is
	the time period in minutes that the connection will be
	allowed to remain idle before it is dropped.

	The default for this field is n.

add:F4:Retry period
	Specify the length of time, in minutes, to wait before trying
	to reestablish a connection to the remote system when the
	connection was dropped abnormally (ie.  dropped through some
	error, not because you terminated it).

	Legal entries here are n, 0 or any integer greater than 0.
	The value n means do not retry dropped connections until
	there is more work.  The value 0 means as soon as the
	connection is dropped, try to reestablish it.  Any other
	integer value is the time period in minutes that will pass
	before the connection is reestablished.

	The default for this field is 10.

add:F5:Comment
	Enter a comment that will be displayed along with the system
	entry when the list task is used.

	Any entry here must be less than 1024 characters long.

	There is no default for this field.

display:F1:System(s)
	You must enter the names of remote systems whose definitions
	you wish to display.  These names must already be defined as
	remote connections for the Printer Service.  If you can not
	recall the correct name, press CHOICES to display a list of
	defined systems that you may choose from.  You may also enter
	the word all to display all defined systems.

	The default for this field is all.

modify:F1:System name
	You must enter the name of a remote system whose definition
	you wish to modify.  This name should already be defined as
	a remote connection for Printer Service.  If you can not
	recall the correct name, press CHOICES to display a list of
	defined systems that you may choose from.
	
	There is no default for this field.

modify:F2:Scheduler type
	Select the type of LP scheduler that exists on the remote
	system.  The only two valid choices are s5 (System V) or bsd
	(SunOS).

	The default for this field is the current value.

modify:F3:Connection timeout
	Specify the time period in minutes that the print service
	should allow a network connection to be idle.  That is, if
	the connection to the remote system is idle (ie.  there is no
	network traffic) for this number of minutes, then drop the
	connection.  When there is more work the connection will be
	reestablished.

	Legal entries here are n, 0 or any integer greater than 0.
	The value n means never timeout (ie.  once established, the
	connection is never dropped).  The value 0 means as soon as
	the connection is idle, drop it.  Any other integer value is
	the time period in minutes that the connection will be
	allowed to remain idle before it is dropped.

	The default for this field is the current value.

modify:F4:Retry period
	Specify the length of time, in minutes, to wait before trying
	to reestablish a connection to the remote system when the
	connection was dropped abnormally (ie.  dropped through some
	error, not because you terminated it).

	Legal entries here are n, 0 or any integer greater than 0.
	The value n means do not retry dropped connections until
	there is more work.  The value 0 means as soon as the
	connection is dropped, try to reestablish it.  Any other
	integer value is the time period in minutes that will pass
	before the connection is reestablished.

	The default for this field is the current value.

modify:F5:Comment
	Enter a comment that will be displayed along with the system
	entry when the list task is used.

	Any entry here must be less than 1024 characters long.

	The default for this field is the current value.

remove:F1:System(s)
	You must enter the names of remote systems whose definitions
	you wish to remove.  These names must already be defined as
	remote connections for the Printer Service.  If you can not
	recall the correct name, press CHOICES to display a list of
	defined systems that you may choose from.
