[SuSE Linux] Network Printing
by sbronson＠opentv.com 05 Feb '99

05 Feb '99

We have a Sun print server here. All NT machines can print to it, but I'm unable to get my Linux machine to talk to it. Here's what I've done: My /etc/printcap: lp|hpj: :sd=/var/spool/lpd/dj: :rm=ulysse.europe.opentv.com: :rp=printer_2: :lp=/dev/null: :sh: But, when I try to lpr, a small file, nothing happens except the following /var/log/messages entry: Feb 4 14:50:53 nikita lpd[837]: /dev/lp: No such file or directory And the job just sits in the lpq until I lprm it. Can someone tell me how to proceed? How do I make a network /dev/lp?

Hey guys, I remember a thread concerning the breakage of masq. when upgrading to the 2.2 kernels, but I haven't been able to find the thread in the archives. I would like to know if anyone fixed masq. under 2.2 and what was the fix? I have changed nothing with my network config and masq. is working fine under 2.0.36. -- Danny Kephart E-Mail: kepe(a)home.com Date: 02-Feb-99 Time: 14:39:57 - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo(a)suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e Check out the SuSE-FAQ at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A">http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A</A>> and the archiv at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A">http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A</A>>

[SuSE Linux] X-server & X-client
by LinuxAdvocate＠iname.com 05 Feb '99

05 Feb '99

How do I . . . . . . run an X program on one computer on my LAN and display the output on another. Both computers are Linux. I've been able to get the outputs to display on a Windows computer on the LAN, but I can't get a Linux-Linux connection. The X-server tries to connect to 192.168.93.103:0.0, but is refused. SuSE manual briefly mentions rlogin, which appears to be enabled (looking at inetd.conf). Here's the output: [bob@oahu bob]$ export DISPLAY=192.168.93.103:0.0 [bob@oahu bob]$ xterm & [1] 24521 [bob@oahu bob]$ Xlib: connection to "192.168.93.103:0.0" refused by server Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server Error: Can't open display: 192.168.93.103:0.0 [1]+ Exit 1 xterm [bob@oahu bob]$ Ideas? -- George - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo(a)suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e Check out the SuSE-FAQ at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A">http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A</A>> and the archiv at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A">http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A</A>>

[SuSE Linux] Howto_SuSE 5.2 --> SuSE 6.0
by naceur＠wanadoo.fr 05 Feb '99

05 Feb '99

</PRE> <PRE> Dear SuSuser, I am highly interested in getting and installing SuSE 6.0 (because the on board AIC 7890) and simply because the 6 should be much better! However I have SusE 5.2 and NT installed on the only HD I have. Q1: What could be the safer way to Upgrade my SuSE 5.2 to SuSE 6.0 ? Today, I have just successeffully installed apache and the Local Doc Support DataBase (I am so happy ! It is so fast ! so useful !) but right now I did not find topics on how to answer how to pass from 5.XX to newer versions. Q2: Can I find SuSE 6 international version in France ! Thank you very much in advance for your help Naceur

Re: [SuSE Linux] Floppy disk and FSTAB
by zulfiqar＠shaw.wave.ca 05 Feb '99

Yes I did the same thing and put 2 lines in...... 1 for ext2 and one for msdos, but it's kinda cumbersome to have 2 mount points for 2 different formats of floppies. Is it possible to enter this into the fstab? /dev/fd0 /floppy ext2 defaults 0 0 /dev/fd0 /floppy msdos defaults 0 0 Both filesystems pointing to the same mount point?
