Hi,
The problem is that Mandrake is not allowing access to the printer
from other machines. When I boot this machine with COL 2.3 it works
fine,so the other machine is set up correctly. COL uses a lpd.perm file
to allow or deny printer access to other Linux machines. I just can't
figure out how Mandrake does this,since it doesn't have the lpd.perm
file. Perhaps they use some other file to do this job or some other
security setting.
Thanks,
Dan
