I have two Linux boxes separated by the internet. I want to print from LinuxA to the printer defined on LinuxB. I've used printtool on LinuxA to add a definition of the remote printer on LinuxB. I've created an /etc/hosts.lpd file on LinuxB that contains the ip addresses and dns names of internet hosts that need to have printer access to LinuxB. I've then restarted the lpd daemon. Firewalling is on for LinuxB and I therefore had to specifically add an ipchains input rule that allows access to LinuxB's web page from the internet. Two questions, guys? What's the ipchains input rule that will allow incoming internet packets permission to use the LinuxB printer? Does allowing this type of input open any worm holes otherwise closed? Thanks for the help. Jerry R.
