Hi,
This is a problem that's driving me crazy. I have a network of three
Linux machines. When I was running Red Hat 5.2, I could print over this
network. Since upgrading to 6.0, I cannot print over the network. I
just upgraded to 6.1, and the problem persists. The three machines are
ripley, weaver, and jonesy. ripley has the printer. I can print fine
on ripley. I configured the printer on all three machines using
printtool. Here's ripley's /etc/printcap:
#
# Please don't edit this file directly unless you know what you are
doing!
# Be warned that the control-panel printtool requires a very strict
format!
# Look at the printcap(5) man page for more info.
#
# This file can be edited with the printtool in the control-panel.
##PRINTTOOL3## LOCAL uniprint NAxNA letter {} U_EpsonStylusColor
stc800pl 1
lp:\
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp:\
:mx#0:\
:sh:\
:lp=/dev/lp0:\
:if=/var/spool/lpd/lp/filter:
Here's weaver's /etc/printcap:
# /etc/printcap

# Please don't edit this file directly unless you know what you are
doing!
# Be warned that the control-panel printtool requires a very strict
format!
# Look at the printcap(5) man page for more info.

##PRINTTOOL3## REMOTE uniprint NAxNA letter {} U_EpsonStylusColor
stc800pl 1

:mx#0:\
:sh:\
:rm=ripley:\
:rp=lp:\
:if=/var/spool/lpd/lp/filter:
[kim@weaver kim]$
When I submit a print job from weaver, nothing prints. lpq on weaver
shows:
weaver.emeraldbiostructures.com: waiting for queue to be enabled on
ripley
Rank Owner Job Files Total Size
1st root 16 ... 625 bytes
ripley.emeraldbiostructures.com: lpd: lp: Your host does not have line
printer access
What is going on? I've upgraded to lpr-0.48. All other network
connections between the machines, ping, telnet, ftp, nfs, are fine.
Thanks,
Hidong
