The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

linux print server  win & linux clients

Asked by phirephly in Linux Printing

Tags: , ,

Looking to set up a print server on a linux (Fedora Core 2) machine. I have the printer connected to it and it can print locally. The server doesn't have X on it, so we need to edit the .conf files (cupsd.conf or whatever). I am plenty comfortable in vi, etc...

I have a windows machine and a linux machine (also FC2) i want to print to this server. I have not tried to mess with the windows machine at all, because of the numerous problems I have been having with the Linux client.

Someone please step me through this process. I'll give diagnostic outputs or whatever. I don't even know what to post to help get started. The server is set up so that it can print locally. I have tried to connect to it wirh the client using the printer configuration utility, but it doesn't seem to connect properly. Right now the error is "Network host busy will retry in 30 seconds... INFO: connecting to printserver on port 631"  before i was getting an error: "client-error-forbidden". Don't know which is better... Hopefully someone can help me learn what's really going on here. I've seen a lot of pages with the client-error-forbidden, but nobody really had a solution for it that matched mine.

Here's the server's cupsd.conf, if that's any help:

<Location /printers/lp0>
Order Deny,Allow
Deny From All
Allow From 127.0.0.1
AuthType None
Allow from <ip>
</Location>
# Lines below are automatically generated - DO NOT EDIT
<Location /printers/deskjet>
Order Deny,Allow
Deny From All
Allow From 127.0.0.1
AuthType None
Allow from <ip>
</Location>
<Location />
Order Deny,Allow
Deny From All
Allow From 127.0.0.1
</Location>
Browsing On
BrowseProtocols cups
BrowseOrder Deny,Allow
BrowseAllow from @LOCAL
BrowseAddress 255.255.255.255
Listen *:631

With the windows machine is there any way around using SAMBA, or that's my only option? am using Win98.

Thanks so much for your help. I've wasted the whole weekend trying to figure it out myself and even had someone in IRC that couldn't debug an almost identical setup. It should be so much more simple, and i'm sure it is...  I just don't know what I'm not seeing. Start Free Trial
