nwpqjob
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.
