You can print from other Windows machines because it's the (local) samba who's doing the printing on behalf of the remote user. > What I have not been able to do is print from another Debian system. > If I try to print from my laptop which has the following printcap: > ... > I get this on the laptop: > ... > no connect permissions > ... > permission to print, so I created on the printserver /etc/hosts.lpd > which contains only '+', but that did not help. You neglected to give information on the printing system you're using. Looks like LPRNG, though... In that case, I don't think LPRNG uses hosts.lpd, that would be utter nonsense. You should perhaps look in lpd.perms and/or lpd.conf, under lprng. -- Carlos Sousa -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
