Very Computer

My main machine is the OS/2 box, with the Linux box as an experimental
machine, and there is no forwarding between the two net0 and net1 on the OS/2
machine

Note: the Linux box has been upgraded significantly since RH 5.1 was
installed.

First off, is it possible to set up OS/2 Warp 4.0 client to act as a print
server using lpd?  Secondly, if this is possible, how can it be done?

How do I find out what queue to send to from the Linux box?

Thank you for any and all assistance in this matter.

Share the printers under OS/2.  The share name becomes the queue name under
Linux.  For example, I have a setup much like yours.  I have two printers on one
lpt1 port.  The shares are named PS (postscript) and HP (pcl).  You can use the
redhat printtool to set up the queues on linux.

Let me know how you make out.

The queue names are in the printer properties, physical name (View tab).   Or just
look at the directory names in your c:\spool directory.   For each printer on OS/2
you will have a directory in the \spool directory.    On my OS/2 box I have a HP
LaserJet 4000N and its spool directory is c:\spool\HPLaserJ and the LPR queue
linux would print to is: HPLaserJ

Long live OS/2!! :)
