Configuring New HP-UX Systems into Workgroups

If you have a group of closely related HP-UX systems, configure the new system into the group by doing the following tasks:

Set up NFS mounts to allow the system’s users to share working directories. See “Adding a User to Several Systems: A Case Study” or “Sharing Remote Work Directories”.
If you are using NIS, you can use the /etc/netgroup file to define network-wide groups used for permission checking when doing remote mounts, remote logins, and remote shells. See the manpage netgroup(4).
Configuring NFS mounts. See “Mounting a Shared File System (HP-UX to HP-UX)”
Add local users and groups. See “Configuring Users and Groups”.
Add remote printers. See “Adding a Remote Printer to the LP Spooler”.
