Hi, This is what I am trying to accomplish: send printing jobs from the system printclient (RHEL 4) to the system printserver (RHEL 5.8) that connects to a network printer. Here are what I did (based on http://www.cups.org/documentation.php/doc-1.6/sharing.html):
Code:
printserver# cupsctl --share-printers
printserver# cupsctl --share-printers --remote-any
printserver# lpadmin -p printername -o printer-is-shared=true
printserver# service cups restart
printserver# service iptables stop
printclient# cat /etc/cups/client.conf
ServerName printserver
printclient# service cups restart
printclient# service iptables status
Firewall is stopped.
It is not working. See these:
Code:
printclient# lp -d printername /etc/group
lp: unable to print file: server-error-service-unavailable
printclient# lpstat -d -p
lpstat: Unable to connect to server: Success
printclient:root# telnet printserver 631
Trying 10.1.1.18...
Connected to printserver
Escape character is '^]'.
Please help! Thank you in advanced! I will give you my Thanks for any helpful info.

Currently only one client is allowed to use the printer server. Here are the new settings that will be manually set in cupsd.conf on the printer server:
Code:
Listen 127.0.0.1:631
Listen printserver:631
<Location />
Order allow,deny
Allow localhost
Allow printclient
</Location>
Browsing On
BrowseProtocols cups
BrowseOrder Deny,Allow
BrowseDeny @LOCAL
BrowseDeny ALL
BrowseAllow printclient
