hi all,
i'm trying to do get my two computers to share a printer:
satan (192.168.0.2): has an hp laserjet6mp; runs standard lpd
navalle (192.168.0.3): would like to use the above printer; runs lprng
printcap on navalle reads:
lp
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp
:sh
:mx=0
:af=/var/spool/lpd/lp/acct
:ml=0
:lf=/var/spool/lpd/lp/log
:cd=/var/spool/lpd/lp/
:lp=lp@satan
:if=/usr/share/lprngtool/master-filter
:
when i try to print from navalle, i get the message:
navalle:~# lpr testmsg
navalle:~# lpq
Printer: lp@navalle (dest lp@satan)
Queue: 1 printable job
Server: pid 19285 active
Unspooler: pid 19308 active
Status: attempt 2, sleeping 10 before retry at 12:10:41.100
Filter_status: lp is ready and printing
Rank Owner/ID Class Job Files Size Time
1 root A 284 testmsg 441
12:10:40
satan: lpd: Your host does not have line printer access
on satan, i created an /etc/hosts.lpd with the contents "192.168.0.3".
ipchains on satan is empty.
i'm completely stumped. can someone please help?
