Hi,
After installing file and print services for unix on XP,
it sets up your printer to accept unix (LPD) commands to
your printer on valid IP (\\19x.x.x.x\hp)
This works fine, however, The LPD service is not
configured to work for localhost (\\127.0.0.1\hp)
Is there any way for me to get this to work?
A quick way to test see if the service is available, after
installing f&p services for unix, open a window using the
Ip address ie \\19x.x.x.x and you will see a folder
called: printers and faxes.
When you open \\127.0.0.1 this folder is not available....
however for a brief while only, immediately after
installing the Service for the 1st time (before reboot) it
actually is available...
Also for some reason??? when connecting to the network via
dial-in) the service is also suddenly available for
\\127.0.0.1
Please help, I really need this to be available for normal
LAN connections also.
Many Thanks
Clinton
