Let me start with a praise of gentoo as it is my choice of linux. I really like it even though it takes forever to set up a new box. Now after hours of aimless looking I found that there is something you really really really (...) need to add to your document at http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/printing-howto.xml It's down where it says "Important: CUPS has a built in configuration file for the daemon that should, but does not have to, be modified. You might want to take a gander at it, it is /etc/cups/cupsd.conf." It would have saved me hours to understand that on my client machine cupsd needs to run and find the name of the server in the file /etc/cupsd/client.conf. So I would suggest you change the paragraph to this: ---<suggestion>--- Important: CUPS has a built in configuration file for the daemon that should, but does not have to, be modified. You might want to take a gander at it, it is /etc/cups/cupsd.conf. For those who want to set up clients using the new print server please look in /etc/cupsd/client.conf on the client machine and point the ServerName parameter to the network name of the print server examples: ServerName printserver ServerName 192.168.0.2 ---</suggestion>--- I am sure this will save a lot of people a lot of time. Thanx, and keep up the great work, guys! Alex www.media4fun.com ----- End forwarded message ----- -- ^__^ And Larry saw that it was Good.
