SuSE Linux: All versions
XFree86: Version 3.3
Applixware: Version 4.3
You want to start Applixware centrally on a server, however the Applix-fonts are not known to the clients. In order to save space you don't want to copy the fonts.
Start an Applixware server process on the server machine, also start an X11 fontserver. Below the necessary steps are explained step by step.
Login to the server as user root and execute the following steps :
/etc/xfs.config
with the following content :
# # sample font server configuration file # # allow a max of 10 clients to connect to this font server client-limit = 10 # when a font server reaches its limit, start up a new one clone-self = on # alternate font servers for clients to use alternate-servers = hansen:7101,hansen:7102 # where to look for fonts # the first is a set of Speedo outlines, the second is a set of # misc bitmaps and the last is a set of 100dpi bitmaps # #catalogue = /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/speedo, # /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc, # /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/ catalogue = /opt/applix/axfonts/all_pcf # in 12 points, decipoints default-point-size = 120 # 100 x 100 and 75 x 75 default-resolutions = 100,100,75,75 use-syslog = on
