Hi managers,
I want to print a file located on an ALPHA server (Tru64 V5.1 1885) -
say GOAW26 - on a printer which queue is defined on a SUSE-Linux
server (Suse Linux 8.1) - say SUS.
Printcommand on GOAW26: lpr -PGOD_007 xaa
Output of lpq on GOAW26:
# lpq -PGOD_007
GOAW26: Thu Sep 22 14:26:37 2005: waiting for SUS to come up
Rank Pri Owner Job Files
Total Size
1st 0 rost 3 xaa 25
bytes
What am I missing?
contents of /etc/printcap on GOAW26:
GOD_007|lp2|god_007:\
:lf=/usr/adm/lp2err:\
:lp=:\
:rm=SUS:\
:rp=GOD_007:\
:sd=/usr/spool/lpd2:
lpr-commands on SUS are working fine.
To allow printing from "foreign host" GOAW26 I made following entries in
/etc/hosts.lpd and hosts.equiv:
GOAW26
goaw26
and restarted the print spooler: rclpd restart
Of course ping between GOAW26 and SUS works.
