local printer (hostname "print") works fine: lpr "file" prints OK.
/etc/hosts.lpd has workstation hostname in it.
restarted lpd.
on workstation, used printtool to set up remote printer at host
"print" with correct spool name. but workstation doesn't print. lpq
prints the following:
[root@ws /root]# lpq
ws.example.com: Warning: lp is down: sending to print.example.com
ws.example.com: Warning: no daemon present
Rank Owner Job Files Total Size
1st root 15 ... 625 bytes
no entries
[root@ws /root]#
things I tried:
1. put a "+" in /etc/hosts.lpd on printer -- no change
2. put FQDN of ws in /etc/hosts.lpd on printer -- no change
3. put IP of ws in /etc/hosts.lpd on printer -- no change
4. put short hostname ("ws") in /etc/hosts.lpd on printer -- no
change
5. put IP of printer in /etc/printcap on ws -- no change
I tried restarting lpd a bunch of times, no luck.
any suggestions?
