The simplest way is to install these packages on the client (not sure if cupsys-bsd is really needed) cupsys install cupsys-bsd install cupsys-client install libcupsimage2 install libcupsys2-gnutls10 install Cups has a (default enabled) browsing protocol which will let the cupsys server on your client pc discover printers which are configured on the cupsys other server[1]. This should simply work, though if either system has more than one IP or network card, you may need to configure BrowseAddress in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf. [1] OK, I'm simplifying things here. In a more diverse network, any one cupsys process can discover printers on any other cups server. AFAIK even windows can't beat that :) -- Stephen Patterson http://patter.mine.nu/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] remove SPAM to reply Linux Counter No: 142831 GPG Public key: 252B8B37 Caution: breathing may be hazardous to your health. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
