In addition to plptools' main daemon "ncpd", plptools provides two optional
7
plpnfsd (for nfs-like mounting a Psion's drives)
8
plpprintd (for printing via PC from a Psion Series 5)
10
Both daemons are disabled by default. You can enable them by editing
13
Template: plptools/ncpd/start
16
Description: Should ncpd being started during boot?
17
Normally, ncpd - the daemon which handles the serial connection to a
18
Psion - is started on boot-up. If you intend to connect your Psion to
19
another machine on the net and NEVER will use it locally, you can
22
Template: plptools/ncpd/serial
25
Description: Specify serial line to be used
26
By default, the Psion is expected to be connected to the first serial
27
line (COM1:) of your machine. You can change this here.
29
Template: plptools/ncpd/listenat
32
Description: Specify the IP address and port for ncpd
33
If you intend to use the plptools front-ends from other machines, you
34
can specify 0.0.0.0 or the IP address of your machine here. Normal
35
users should keep the default 127.0.0.1!
37
Note, that THIS IS A SECURITY THREAT as no authentication and no
38
encryption is used! DO NOT USE THIS on machines which are accessible
41
Template: plptools/plpnfsd/start
44
Description: Should plpnfsd being started during boot?
45
If plpnfsd is started during boot-up, it will wait for a Psion being
46
connected and then automatically mount that Psion. Since this is
47
done as root, non-privileged users will not have access to the
48
mounted directory. If you have a single-user machine, you probably
49
want to start plpnfsd manually when you need it.
51
Template: plptools/plpnfsd/suid
54
Description: Set SUID-root bit of plpnfsd?
55
For convenience on a single-user machine, plpnfsd can be installed with
56
the setuid bit enabled. This allows any local user to mount and unmount
57
a connected Psion. Be warned, that THIS IS A SECURITY THREAT to your
58
machine. NEVER ENABLE THIS ON A MULTIUSER MACHINE.
60
Template: plptools/plpprintd/start
63
Description: Should plpprintd being started during boot?
64
If you intend to use the Psion's "Print via PC" feature, you can
65
enable this option. You must have a working print queue which
66
is capable of printing Postscript in order to use this feature.
68
Template: plptools/plpprintd/printqueue
71
Description: Specify the print queue to be used
72
Please enter the name of the print queue you want to use for
73
printing from the Psion.
75
Template: plptools/frontends/remoteaddr
77
Description: Specify remote host to be contacted
78
Since you have ncpd either disabled or listening on a non-standard
79
address, you should specify the address for the frontents again.
