Box #1 is running Samba on the RH7.3. It's been running rock solid. All the window boxes printing to box #1. I've just set up a 2nd linux box with RH8. I want RH8 to print to the same over the network. I configured it to print with "UNIX printer" mode to box #1. For unknown reason, nothing is output at the printer. What wrong?

More details reqd. Try this; in an xterm, run the cmd
tail -f /var/log/messages
on both linux boxes.
Then try to print something and see if any msgs appear.
You may be blocking the printer port 515.
Check /etc/services.
