Being somewhat new to the RT and TCP-IP world, I may be asking a very obvious and boring question, but if anyone has any answers or suggestions, they would be appreciated: Say someone has an RT which has connected to it a Micom Interlan NTS-100 terminal server (which has an IP address, built in Ethernet, and 8 serial ports). This someone would like to be able to route specific lpr requests to one or more printers attached to ports on the NTS-100, routing through TCP-IP. Essentially, what would be involved would be intercepting requests to, say "lp07", and making sure that anything sent to that printer actually prints out on port 03 of the terminal server. I apologize for my ignorance, but they want it yesterday and nothing in the documentation seems to point in this direction. Can this be done through simple lpr administration, or would some additional programming be necessary to re-route the files?? Once again, any info would be appreciated. Please e-mail responses to me and I will post a summary if that seems appropriate. - Weaver Hickerson * ...!gatech!holos0!wdh * (404) 496-1358 HOLOS Software, Inc., 3469 Lawrenceville Highway, Tucker GA 30084 -- -Weaver Hickerson Holos Software
