Ok, so I tried removing the filter on strider (remember gandalf has the printer, strider is a client trying to print to gandalf's printer; both run RH 8.0). And I still see the same result.
The printcap now looks like: lp:\ :ml#0:\ :mx#0:\ :sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp:\ :af=/var/spool/lpd/lp/lp.acct:\ :sh:\ :rm=gandalf.smacchia.net:\ :rp=lp: And when I do an lpq after trying to print, I see: Printer: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (dest [EMAIL PROTECTED]) Queue: no printable jobs in queue Server: no server active Status: keeping error job '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' at 06:59:33.063 Rank Owner/ID Class Job Files Size Time error [EMAIL PROTECTED] A 29 ERROR: job removal requested no connect permissions Neither machine has a firewall and telnet, rsh, rlogin services are available on gandalf. Any help here is much appreciated.
