Before I asked how to connect to a novell network.
I got good replys which really helped and I thank you all. I would like to add a small GUI application I found
that deals with the network connection in a novell client style: http://www.novell.com/coolsolutions/tools/1518.html I am now trying to print. In order to do so I need to
use a small application called 'nprint'. I created
a small printing script for nprint, and all I want is to be able to tell the
printing deamon to print using that script. Doing so using 'printcap' is possible (:if=/var/spool/lpd/my_nprint_script:), however, (and there
is my problem), I'm using mandrake 9.0 and this distribution is using CUPS. It
seems that the 'printcap' configuration file is generated from cups, thus is
will erase any changes I make to the 'printcap' file. The question is how can I set it up that the printer
will use my small script for printing, by sending the generated print file as
input to that script? Or, is there another way to connect to a novell
printer without using the nprint script? (using ncp://…
isn't good it doesn't deal with user credentials). shai |
