We have an old SGI machine with IRIX 5.2. Recently we decided to use the good photoprinter connected to that machine from our FreeBSD machines and (more important) from our Win* machines (through Samba and BSD server). The problem is that BSD-compatible printing system is not installed on that Indy. There is of course a way to implement certain rsh-based magic to teach samba to print on it. However, this is a long and nasty way to do it, and we have several IRIX EFS CD's with lpd on one of them. But SGI machine does not have a CD-ROM! It also does not have C compiler installed (it's on those CDs, too), so a bunch of other options is out of the question, too. :-( My question is - is it possible in some way to mount EFS CDs on FreeBSD machine? Thank you in advance. -- Anton Berezin <tobez@plab.ku.dk> The Protein Laboratory, University of Copenhagen To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
