In my high school classroom we have a small network of four linux boxen, with private block ip addresses (our Public School System domain is in a private block), with one printer. I have been able to ftp/telnet between my own boxen, but I am unskilled so don't know how much I can do with/among my colleagues who are running Windoze. I wonder about security, but I think we are ok to at least share one printer via our "Internet" non-internet network.
In my room I want to print to my printer from any of my machines. I have tried the scant instructions in the Linux Printing-HOWTO, and I have attempted to follow instructions on the debian lists. When testing remote printing, the file is spooled, but mhs49:/home/adavis# lpc stat lp: queuing is enabled printing is enabled 11 entiries in spool area waiting for queue to be enabled on mhs46. /etc/hosts.equiv on mhs46 (the server). Is there some clear instruction somewhere on how to do this. I can write a short HOWTO if I can figure this out. TIA and Thanks for many previous helps, Alan Davis
