[comp.sys.next] Non-NetInfo NeXTs sharing NeXT printer: help.

cnh5730@maraba.tamu.edu (04/24/91)

I am trying to get a Non-NetInfo NeXT with a NeXT 400 dpi laser
printer hanging on a campus internet to share the printer with another
Non-NetInfo NeXT on the same net.

I have tried using configure in PrintManager (no luck) and creating a
/etc/hosts.equiv file and rebooting with no luck. Attempting to print
from a "print panel" on the NeXT without a physical connection to the
printer is creating /usr/spool/appkit/spooled.1 type files.

Any ideas? I assume there is something I have to tweak inside the
local NetInfo domain of the NeXT with the printer to allow this
remote-host to print, but I can't figure out what it is.

Of course, thanks.
