Attending: all of us.
Corrections to printdel@mit.edu. Thx. ME
1. Plunder is scheduled for set up with IBM Field Service today in E40.
2. Diskspace: ASST has installed new disk drives on both pillage and
plunder. Configuring is in the works.
3. Test queues: LED needs Plunder up and running to complete clean
up. Pillage is done.
4. Who authorizes print queues? Decision made to deal with this on a
case by case basis as business units switch over to IPM.
5. Who has access/privileges to restricted print queues? DFL has
discussed this issue with TRegan and explained the hazards of full
privileges - for example, only operators should be starting up a
printer. At present R3-admin, BLT, and the Help Desk have full
privileges though they have been admonished not to exercise all of
them. HTACCESS, when installed, will permit better control of
privileges.
6. EP60, EP62 (print queues for general users, e.g., FBCs, printing from SAP)/
- Dave to discuss these names with Theresa, arguing to exchange
them for more user friendly names.
- MEB: notify Jane White and SAP writer about new print queues to
be written up in SAP documentation.
7. Move EP1 from APS to IPM. LED to negotiate cutover date w/Bil Huxley.
8. IP restriction - is it necessary or desirable?
- Yes. LED w/put IP restrictions on unauthenticated (SAP) queues.
- REC w/check LPD perms file to determine if rules permit
authenticated connections.
9. End-user web documentation. Is up in the is/help directory. Not
yet connected to the Printing at MIT page. (See:
http://web.mit.edu/is/help/printing/central)
- MEB: remove any references to redirecting output to another
delivery address. Too confusing for Mail Services. In future, may be
able to add name of recipient at another address to the separator
page.
Tasks remaining:
REC - by 12/12:
1. Set up chrons to generate weekly usage reports.
2. Set up chrons to clear up logs.
3. Update the Dan script. When this is done, the simplex/duplex issue
will be resolved and the object code/delivery address issues will
vanish!
4. Contact Miki to check on progress on htaccess.
DFL: Complete financial model: Dave's waiting for new data that REC
w/provide any day now.
LED/MEB: complete installation/maintenance web page.
DONE:
Article announcing the service w/be published in November/December
issue of I/S newsletter.
8.
