[comp.sys.hp] Remote printing HPUX to MAC/AIX

jr@bwilab3.UUCP (Eugene W Coleman) (08/14/90)

	Any system admin can understand my frustrations........
	I have installed a MAC/AIX box on my lan and have remotely
	mounted that filesystem onto my 9000/835. Using SAM (probably my
	first mistake) I have set-up remote prining to several other machines
	But, can't seem to get it right on the MAC. I've created a default
	destination on the MAC using it's lpadmin. The only way which I can
	presently get anything on the MAC to print locally is to use lpr.
	I have successfully submitted jobs from HPUX to the MAC queue but
	cannot get lp to execute to empty the queue. 


	HAS ANYONE DONE THIS BEFORE ??????????????


Note: /etc/hosts.equiv has been updated. I've followed the directions in the
      Mac manual. And followed SAM's directions on 835.

Just a thought:  Does the MAC have lpd running?  This is the line
printer deamon that is usually executed from /etc/rc.  It's responsible
for accepting requests and printing them when a printer is available.
