I am running a net work where the one machine (gandalf) is the NIS server and has the printer for the network on it. It is also running samba to share a public dir and the printer with my daughter's laptop (which runs windows xp).
I have 2 other RH 8.0 machines on the network (strider & my laptop). Neither one can print to the printer on gandalf. After adding the printer on strider, when I execute "lpq" I see: Printer: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (dest [EMAIL PROTECTED]) Queue: no printable jobs in queue no connect permissions Note the "no connect permissions". If I try and print, I see the following after executing "lpq": Printer: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (dest [EMAIL PROTECTED]) Queue: 1 printable job Server: pid 12705 active Unspooler: pid 12737 active Status: IF filter 'mf_wrapper' filter msg - 'closed *main::KID3' at 14:52:46.116 Rank Owner/ID Class Job Files Size Time active(attempt-2) [EMAIL PROTECTED] A 704 /usr/share/printconf 18052 14:52:16 What is up with the Status line here? Eventually the jop shows up as: Printer: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (dest [EMAIL PROTECTED]) Queue: no printable jobs in queue Server: no server active Status: keeping error job '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' at 14:53:44.551 Rank Owner/ID Class Job Files Size Time error [EMAIL PROTECTED] A 704 ERROR: job removal requested no connect permissions I've got the same configuration at work with not problems. So I am puzzled. Here is the printcap entry on strider: lp:\ :ml#0:\ :mx#0:\ :sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp:\ :af=/var/spool/lpd/lp/lp.acct:\ :sh:\ :rm=gandalf.smacchia.net:\ :rp=lp:\ :lpd_bounce=true:\ :if=/usr/share/printconf/util/mf_wrapper: And the one on gandalf (the server): lp:\ :ml#0:\ :mx#0:\ :sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp:\ :af=/var/spool/lpd/lp/lp.acct:\ :sh:\ :lp=/dev/lp0:\ :lpd_bounce=true:\ :if=/usr/share/printconf/util/mf_wrapper: Does anyone have any ideas?
