cups Administration with Webinterfaces: - Device: "Parallel Port" missing

[Christian Tanghe]

Hi, 
in brief:
My system: FBSD 5.2 Current, Cups, Gimp-print and ghostscript from this days

I want to add a locally connected Printer using the webinterface. In the
dropdown menue "Device" apear different printer devices, e.g. LPD/LPR Host or
Printer and IPP, but _not_ Parallel Port.

1. what is wrong?

2. are more infos about the System needed?

3. right group?

Thank you, greetings
Christian

virtual tape or streamer device for backup purposes possible

[Christian Tanghe]

Hello,

is it possible to configure a virtual tape, just working on an other
harddisk? Lokaly or on any other Server in the network
Writing an reading on it should be transparent for commands like tar, cpio
or any backup software.

Or in other words: Can you only load a driver for an non existent streamer
and use it to write on disk?
Or do I need a special software solution?

If you will excuse me ;), anybody knows if it exists a comparable solution
under Linux?

greetings
Christian

Re: virtual tape or streamer device for backup purposes possible

[Christian Tanghe]

Sorry for the english/german mix...

Perhaps I did not get my question to the point:
How can I simulate a "real streamer with tapes" _transparent_ for any
backup software (and any FBSD or Linux OS).
It would be nice no use the implemented database of the backup software
(like Yosemite/Tapeware or products like this), or other features,
whitout buying a streamer.

And, perhaps, this transparency would get so far that even tar or cpio
think they write onto a "real streamer" and not to a real file.

If theres no solution for all, is there any backup software able, to
work like this?

thanks in advanced
Christian
