No...."localhost" means the X-Windows display on the host you are logged into.
Usually you would set the DISPLAY to be the IP address of the workstation you are logged in from. For example your workstation may be 192.168.1.1 and the AIX server you are logged into is 192.168.1.2. In this instance you would set your DISPLAY=192.168.1.1:0
Again, usually the X-Windows emulation software will give you an option to set the DISPLAY variable automatically. Also X-Windows security is important. Again the emulator should sort that for you (look for options using Xauthority or xauth).

NAME
lpweb - invokes the HP-UX Printer Management tool
SYNOPSIS
[ ] [ ]
[ ]
DESCRIPTION
The HP-UX Printer Management tool ( ) is used to configure the LP spooling sub-system. It allows the user to view and configure Printers
and Print Requests. The tool also allows the user to save and restore spooler configuration.
The HP-UX Printer Management tool provides both Web-based and terminal user interface.
The Web-based interface is launched through the HP System Management Homepage. Superuser privileges are required to access the HP-UX
Printer Management tool.
An attempt will be made to connect to a Mozilla/Netscape Web browser running on the X server defined by the DISPLAY environment variable.
If a running Mozilla/Netscape client is found, it will be used, otherwise a new Mozilla/Netscape session will be initiated. This will only
happen if the Mozilla/Netscape process is running in the same system as that referenced by the DISPLAY variable, unless the -F option is
used.
Note: By default, the HP-UX Printer Management tool ( ) invokes the Mozilla Web browser. If you want to support any other browser (Net-
scape), set the BROWSER environment variable as shown below:
The terminal user interface is invoked if any of the following conditions are true:
o The command is invoked with the option.
o The environment variable is not set.
The Web-based interface is launched if all the following conditions are true:
o The command is invoked with option.
o The environment variable is set.
o The command is available on the system.
Options
recognizes the following options:
Forces a client browser to be used in less secure ways.
The option forces the client browser to be used or started, even when the X-traffic between the X-server and the Mozilla
browser is not secure.
Use this option only when you are sure the network traffic between the host where Mozilla is running and the host in the
DISPLAY variable is secure.
If a privileged user (root) executes the
command with the option, a temporary login bypass key is generated. The bypass key enables the user to access the Web
interface without having to provide login information again.
You can also start the HP-UX Printer Management tool using one of the
following methods:
o Invoke o Invoke the HP-UX Printers and Plotters Configuration tool Web interface by typing the URL in the address bar
of your browser, where hostname is the fully qualified name of the server.
o Launch the HP-UX Systems Insight Manager on the server and select the Printer Management tool from Configure -> HP-UX
Configuration menu
Online Help
After the HP-UX Printers and Plotters Configuration tool is started, the online help provides details on how to use the tool.
RETURN VALUES
Upon completion, lpweb returns one of the following values:
o 0 Successful
o 1 An error occurred
