I have a PS11D model and will right now see whats > my print server's firmware state. Report about this issue: I had firmware version 6017 on my Netgear PS110. So I updated to latest version 6025 on my model from series PS11D (second revision) to see what changes. I now have AppleTalk support now. Regarding tcp port usage and iptables there is no change. With luck you have a device from series PS11F and you can upgrade to firmware 6028. As it fixes "Fixed that LPR cannot print when Windows XP SP1 firewall is enabled." it may help too on other OS like Linux. I still observe the "ACK PSH SYN" answer sequence when talking to the print server on port 515. Allowing that with -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --tcp-flags ACK,PSH,SYN ACK,PSH,SYN -s 192.168.0.99 --sport 515 -j ACCEPT helps to fix this. That is just half of the price. Then when printing the PS110 tries to answer back from source port 515 to the privileged port 1023 on the printing Fedora host. Though the default iptables setup does not distinguish between the privileged low ports up to 1023 and the high ports 1024 and above, the firewall blocks this traffic. This causes a long delay until printing starts. So I added following line -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -s 192.168.0.99 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 1023 -j ACCEPT and all is fine. Maybe it helps you Steve or anyone else finding this notes from the archive (googling) ;) Alexander -- Alexander Dalloz | Enger, Germany | new address - new key: 0xB366A773 legal statement: http://www.uni-x.org/legal.html Fedora GNU/Linux Core 2 (Tettnang) on Athlon kernel 2.6.9-1.6_FC2smp Serendipity 04:16:25 up 2 days, 22:57, load average: 2.42, 2.32, 1.96
