Anyway the RH9 and RH8 boxes around here were connecting to this printer server using LPD. Now I tried copying one of the existing machines /etc/printcap to my /etc/printcap.local and have had no success getting the printer which is right next to my desk to print anything! Any pointers would be most appreciated. Tony Vasile
