Yes I am using LPRng. I looked at /etc/lpd.perms and DEFAULT ACCEPT is the last line. I looked on the RH website and read everything I could and have added /etc/hosts.lpd to list all of the hosts that will print. Restarted lpd on all systems, and still the same "no connect permissions". I just can't figure out what is going on. I may try rlpr as a work around (if that will even work).
I've compared my configuration with the one at work and they are just about identical, so I am pretty much stumped. Anyway, my husband and son are getting quite annoyed with me because they always have to ask me to get something printed from one of the other machines...They keep asking, "When are you going to fix printing?".
