Hi, I have three FC3 Servers giving me some nightmares. The machines has been working for a while without any hassle. HP1010 is connected to host1 and HP2550 to host2 I used to print to both printers from my XP boxes without any problem. All of a sudden I could not print on HP1010 only from XP but from other Unix box it wasa fine. So I decided to share the printers on both machines and it works for some time then the HP2550 follows. On XP --- Printers HP1010 on Host1 USB Connection HP1010 on Host2 Network to Host1 HP2550 on Host1 Network to Host2 HP2550 on Host2 USB Connection My third server FC3, has much bigger problem, it was also working for a long time. Now I cannot connect to it from other boxes only pinging to it works. the machine itself is up and running, I can browse on the internet, ssh to other machines, mount other directories from other boxes. Using lsof -i it shows that the services are running, sshd, nfs, samba etc Regards Livhu Tshisikule Tel/Fax 012 323 43 66 Cell 083 55 66 838 Alt.
