I like to print from Solaris to Linux.
|
|
The /etc/hosts.lpd file contents the sun IP address.
|
|
I have installed the Linux printer on the Sun by remote printer.
|
|
It works fine, but when i print to the remote linux printer, it is fail.

I presume you mean that it works fine "locally" but
|
|
fails from the remote clients.

Well, '<TT>lpd</TT>' is black magic to me. I've got my remote
|
|
printing working on one pair of systems but not on another.
|
|
Also '<TT>lpd</TT>' seems to be a security nightmare that's almost
|
|
as bad as the older '<TT>sendmail</TT>' releases.
|
|
|
|
<br><br>
|
|
One possibility would be to try installing <TT>LPRng</TT> (the
|
|
next generation of the lpr suite). I've printed out the
|
|
manual for it (over a hundred pages long) and worked
|
|
through a bit of it. It does seem to be an industrial
|
|
strength printing/queueing system. Aye, but there's the
|
|
rub, it may be overkill for your situation.
|
|
|
|
<br><br>
|
|
So, all I can suggest is that you make sure that you've
|
|
followed all of the steps and suggestions in the Printing
|
|
HOWTO and that you try to get more specific debugging data.

Thanks for your e-mail. I have read many HOWTO about this, but I am going to
|
|
try everything.
