Has anyone tried to do reverse LAT from a DECstation 3100
to set up a printer? We have a Datability terminal server that
we have used to set up printers for a VMS node and we would
like to add another printer for the ULTRIX node.
I created the LAT devices (they seem to work, we can log in via
the terminal server)
I then went into /etc/tty and changed one of the LAT lines to
tty16 none vt100 off
I then did "kill -HUP 1" to set it up.
Then I edited the printcap file and did...
lp|lp0:\
:af=/usr/adm/lpacct:\
:br#9600:\
:fc#0177777:\
:fs#03:\
:if=/usr/lib/lpdfilters/ln03of:\
:lf=/usr/adm/lperr:\
:lp=/dev/tty16:\
:mc#20:\
:mx#0:\
:of=/usr/lib/lpdfilters/ln03of:\
:op=PORT_19:\
:pl#66:\
:pw#80:\
:rw:\
:sd=/usr/spool/lpd:\
:ts=DENISE:\
:xc#0177777:\
:xf=/usr/lib/lpdfilters/xf:\
:xs#044000:
Terminal server DENISE has many printers on it that work from the
VMS side.
Then I did a "lcp -h /dev/tty16:DENISE:PORT_19" to reserve the port
for host initiated requests.
When I print to the device it can't connect, when I copy a file to /dev/tty16
it says...
# cp printcap /dev/tty16
cp: /dev/tty16: Can't assign requested address
#
Any ideas??
thanks in advance,
