NAME
xktalk - Xinet GUI for The X Window System
SYNOPSIS
/usr/etc/appletalk/xktalk [ -notroot ] [ -toolkitoption ...
]
DESCRIPTION
The program xktalk is an X11/Motif client that handles GUI
administration of Xinet software. See the K-Talk
Administrator's Guide for more information on running
xktalk.
The only option xktalk accepts that is not an X Toolkit
option is -notroot. When a user other than the super-user
(root) runs xktalk, they are prompted to supply the super-
user password if they want system-administrator privileges.
If the -notroot option is given on xktalk's command line,
that prompt dialog box will not appear, and xktalk will be
unprivileged.
This program should not be run when X server resources are
not available to it. The default english resources are
usually in the file /usr/lib/X11/app-defaults/Xinet, but may
be elsewhere depending on your X server and user
environment. This is a locale-aware program and will serve
any locale for which there is a /usr/lib/X11/locale/app-
defaults/Xinet file. These resources may also be made
available via the xrdb(1) program. You will know if the
resources have been properly initialized if the lower-
right-most button in the main window is labeled ``Close''
(or the non-english equivalent) instead of ``close.''
In addition to the standard set of Toolkit and Motif
resources, xktalk accepts a few additional resources that
reset internal table limits. All of these default values
should already be in the Xinet application defaults file.
Resource Default
Name Value Internal table it controls
Xinet.maxatlog 81920 bytes at end of system log file to show
ktalk.maxObjects 600 items to display in AppleTalk browser
print.maxPrinterlog 81920 bytes at end of a print queue's log to show
print.maxServers 260 AppleTalk printers to see when adding
kfs.maxServers 260 AppleShare servers to see when adding
xktalk also supports special printing options via a
configurable set of resources. These resources set the name
of a printer type and the program to call to get information
about printing to the device. Contact Xinet for details
about the calling sequence and information syntax. The
resouces consist of the following:
