thanks Helge.
OK , i installed cups-lpd and changed the xinet.d/cups-lpd on the Centos to match the Fedora. There still seems to be something missing.
On the Fedora box
. ps ax | grep cups
. 2064 ? Ss 0:00 cupsd
. 2460 ? Ss 0:00 cups-config-daemon
. 3373 pts/0 S+ 0:00 grep cups
but on the CentOS box , i just get
. ps ax | grep cups
. 3155 ? Ss 0:00 cupsd
. 3160 pts/1 S+ 0:00 grep cups
. 3822 ? Ss 0:00 eggcups --sm-client-id default4
and I still can not get a lp session going from outside the CentOS box.
There is no service for cups-lpd that I can see, do I need to restart the CentOS?
