Still trying to share printer

Hi Everybody,

I am still wrestling with trying to share my local pinter on my home network. I enable printer sharing, added /dev/usb/lp0 to the NFS shares, and the printer shows up on the other computers. I believe my problem the firewall. Can someone tell me how to open port 631? I feel certain this is the problem because I occassionally get "permission denied" on one of the other linux boxes.

Any help appreciated.

Bob

Solved. Port was ok. Did some editing to the cups.config file allow network users.
