I am getting closer to solving my home network printing configuration problem but close in this case is like close in horseshoes. It just not good enough. Here is the deal. there is no firewall or selinux running on any of the home network machines. The three machines have the following ip-s. 192.168.1.100 print server hardwired to DSL router. FC4 192.168.1.101 a print client with its own local printer. hardwired to the DSL router. FC5 192.168.1.106 wireless so ip may change. print client. FC4 telnet ip-number 25 connects from any two machines. telnet ip-number 631 connects from clients to server. telnet ip-number 631 refuses connection from server to clients. With this state of affairs it is not surprising that cups printer browsing from server to clients does not work. Does anyone have a suggestion where the problem may lie, how to find out and how to fix things? -- Aaron Konstam <akonstam@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
