We have a host system (FreeBSD) "BSDServer" with local printer (lp) attached , configured and in network. We have another Windows NT system "NTStation" in the network. In Windows NT it supports the LPR printing using RFC 1179 protocol. We want to print a file from windows NT system using LPR to the "BSDserver" printer(lp). We have entered the IP address of the windows NT system in /etc/hosts.lpd file of "BSDserver". Now when we try to print a file from NTsataion we get error saying "Error: print server did not accept request. Job aborted." So please guide us how to configure and print file from NT station to BSDServer. Thanx in advance. Regards Arul.
