  utconfig(8)                         CLIX                         utconfig(8)



  NAME

    utconfig - Displays or sets workstation configuration parameters

  SYNOPSIS

    utconfig -d[f]

    utconfig -s[f]

  FLAGS

    -d   Displays the current configuration parameter values and the valid
         parameter settings for the system.

    -f   Uses the system defaults for displaying the parameter settings or for
         saving the parameter values to the system disk.

    -s   Reads the parameter values from stdin and writes the specified
         parameter values to the configuration area of the system disk.

  DESCRIPTION

    The utconfig command displays or modifies the system configuration
    parameters from the workstation Utility Pages.  Most of the operations
    that can be performed with utconfig can also be performed using the
    Utility Pages.

    The utconfig -s command reads configuration parameters from stdin.  Each
    input line describes a parameter.  The format of the input line is as
    follows, where each item is separated by a tab:

    parameter   value   #comments

    Exceptions to this input format are the wkspwd and fdmpwd parameters.

    The output format of utconfig -d is the same as the input format for
    utconfig -s.

    The following parameters are supported:

    kfn      Specifies the kernel file name.  The default is unix.  File name
             limitations apply.

    nn       Specifies the network node name associated with the system
             network address.  Network node name limitations apply.

    bsu      Forces the system to boot into single user mode as opposed to
             multi-user mode.  Any :initdefault: entry in the /etc/inittab
             file will be ignored if this switch is set to yes.  The default
             setting is no.

  EXAMPLES

             1.  This example shows sample output from the display option (-
                 d). The following command displays default configuration
                 values as shown:

                 utconfig -df
                 PARAM     DEFAULT   DESCRIPTION         OPTIONS

                           .
                           .
                           .


             2.  The following command lines save the default parameter
                 settings:

                 utconfig -df | utconfig -s
                 utconfig -sf


             3.  The following command sequence creates an output file
                 (sample) listing the current parameter settings, edits
                 sample, and saves the new parameter settings.  First key in:

                 utconfig -d > sample

                 Make the needed changes in the file sample, then key in:

                 utconfig -s < sample


             4.  This example shows how to read new parameter values from
                 stdin and save them to the configuration file:

                 utconfig -s

  utconfig(8)                         CLIX                         utconfig(8)



                 PARAM     VALUE
                 nn   john
                 bsu  yes
                 kc   on
                 aux  1
                 bd   1200
                 wkspwd
                 New workstation password:
                 Re-enter new workstation password:
                 <Ctrl-D>

                 This example changes the nodename to john, sets the system up
                 to boot single user, turns on key clicks, and sets the baud
                 rate to 1200 on auxiliary port 1.  This example also sets the
                 workstation password.  Note that the workstation password is
                 not echoed to the screen.

  NOTES

    Only the superuser can change configuration parameters.

    The system must be rebooted before any parameter changes will take effect.

    Saving the default values (-sf flags) saves a null string for the node
    name.  Therefore, if a node name is present and the default values for the
    parameters are saved, the node name must be changed using the -s flag.

    The workstation password (wkspwd parameter) and FDM password (fdmpwd
    parameter) are not changed by saving the default parameter values.  Use
    the -s flag to change these parameters.

  CAUTIONS

    All saved parameter values will remain saved until changed using either
    this utility or the Workstation Utility Pages.

  EXIT VALUES

    The utconfig command exits with a value of 0 when successful. Otherwise,
    utconfig exits with a non-zero value.
