we have a network here, consisting mainly of RedHat 8.0 machines. We also have a PostScript print plugged into the network called "printer.domain".
All RedHat 8.0 machines have this printer configured as "raw@printer.domain", and this is the only (and the default) printer installed.
All machines can print to the printer with no problems whatsoever, but one machine keeps having problems every few days, and it seems that the only thing that fixes it is a reboot.
The most recent error we have received is as follows:
Code:
job 'username@client+167' transfer to raw@localhost failed
error 'ERROR TRANSFERRING DATA'
error msg: '^B server load too high'
...or something very much like that anyway.
Also, we can successfully stop lpd from running by typing '/etc/init.d/lpd stop' and when we start it up again using the same method it says it started fine, but in actualy fact, the lp daemon is not running and when '/etc/init.d/lpd status' is run, it says:
Code:
lpd is dead but subsys is locked
Does anyone have any idea what is happening here?
I have looked in Google already and all i can find are referenced to name lookups, but putting the following into '/etc/hosts' doesn't make any difference:
Code:
192.168.1.50 printer.domain printer
Any help is massively appreciated!
