Hi All,
Some time ago I upgraded my Deb box and since then remote printing to it
from an SGI does not work. I am running testing on the Deb box.
The print jobs from the SGI appear in its local queue but it does not
apppear in the queue on the Deb box. There is no error message in the
lpd log files to say there is a problem but I get SGI box saying:
error code 1 in request hp-177 on printer hp.
Check /var/spool/lp/log on the printer host.
The printing HOWTO says that I have to have the machine that wants to
print listed in
either hosts.equiv or hosts.lpd There is no man page for hosts.lpd so I
am presuming that the printing system on Debian does not use this. I
have added the machine name to hosts.equiv to see if that works but no
luck.
At the moment I am thinking that the Deb box is just denying the print
job. Is there some other file that I need to setup. The lpd man says
things about a lpd.perms file but I never did have one of those before.
