Hi guys, I'm setting up a SuSE Linux 6.2 based network (for those of you who missed my other message ;-). I have a printer attached to one machine and I want the other machines on the network to be able to use that printer. What do I need to do? (besides read the manual ;-). I did, but I wasn't able to figure it out!

Suse6.2 manual, page 269 should give you all the info you need. ---------------------------------- E-Mail: Peter Onion <ponion@srd.bt.co.uk> Date: 30-Nov-99 Time: 13:44:32 This message was sent by XFMail ---------------------------------- -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/

Go (on the remote machine) and use yast to setup the printer: omething like system administration, network konfigration, setup network printer. you need the name or IP of the print server and the printer name you want to print to. on the print server, make sure the clients appear in hosts.lpd and that should be it. (It might be that hosts.allow hosts.deny or a running firewall might cause some further fun, but that should be it) Juergen -- =========================================== __ _ Juergen Braukmann juergen.braukmann@gmx.de| -o)/ / (_)__ __ ____ __ Tel: 0201-743648 dk4jb@db0qs.#nrw.deu.eu | /\\ /__/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / ===========================================_\_v __/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\ -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
