I would like to put my printers on a private lan -- ie non-routed ip addresses. Then using lprng running on bsd spool jobs to them. While getting lprng to work doesn't present a challenge, I would like to be able to use the web management interfaces on these printers.
So, I was thinking of some kind of proxy web server that I could also run along with lprng. The idea would be to rewrite incoming requests to lpserver.asu.edu/hp8100 to 192.168.10.10:80 and proxy them thru. I admit, this sound rather strange... but since we cannot really control our network here, I thought I would at least control the network in our rooms where our servers are. any comments form experience would be appreciated.. thanks. -- David Bear phone: 480-965-8257 fax: 480-965-9189 College of Public Programs/ASU Wilson Hall 232 Tempe, AZ 85287-0803 "Beware the IP portfolio, everyone will be suspect of trespassing" ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- YOU MUST BE A LIST MEMBER IN ORDER TO POST TO THE LPRNG MAILING LIST The address you post from MUST be your subscription address If you need help, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (or lprng-requests or lprng-digest-requests) with the word 'help' in the body.
