NWPQJOB(1)							      nwpqjob								NWPQJOB(1)

NAME
nwpqjob - Perform operations on the jobs in NetWare print queue SYNOPSIS
nwpqjob [ -h ] [ -S server ] [ -U user name ] [ -P password | -n ] [ -C ] < -d | -r > queue_name job_ID [ another_job_ID ... ] pqrm [ -h ] [ -S server ] [ -U user name ] [ -P password | -n ] [ -C ] queue_name job_ID [ another_job_ID ... ] DESCRIPTION
pqrm or nwpqjob -d remove specified jobs from the specified NetWare print queue. nwpqjob -r resumes specified job in the specified NetWare print queue. nwpqjob looks up the file $HOME/.nwclient to find a file server, a user name and possibly a password. See nwclient(5) for more information. Please note that the access permissions of .nwclient MUST be 600, for security reasons. OPTIONS
-d Delete specified print job(s). This is default operation for pqrm. -r Resume (clear OPERATOR HOLD and USER HOLD flags) specified print job(s). queue_name queue_name is used to specify queue. You can not use wildcards in the name. job_ID , another_job_ID job_ID is used to specify which job has to be deleted or resumed. -S server server is the name of the server you want to use. -U user name If the user name your NetWare administrator gave to you differs from your unix user-id, you should use -U to tell the server about your NetWare user name. -P password You may want to give the password required by the server on the command line. You should be careful about using passwords in scripts. -n -n should be given to mount shares which do not require a password to log in. If neither -n nor -P are given, pqstat prompts for a password. -C By default, passwords are converted to uppercase before they are sent to the server, because most servers require this. You can turn off this conversion by -C. SEE ALSO
