Can’t Print via CUPS

by k.somma . Updated 20 years, 10 months ago

can’t connect to CUPS over wireless
Hi, Running SUSE 9.3 (dual boot (Linux/XP) on laptop and main PC). I can connect via Samba to shared files on XP. Can print on the main PC when its booted to XP and I’m running Suse on the laptop. I can see shared files when the PC and Laptop are booted to SUSE Linux ….. NOW on to what I can’t seem to configure.

I can’t connect and print from the SUSE Laptop (over the wireless network) on the SUSE Main PC. I have tried everything to no avail. Here’s the message I get from the terminal window while trying to connect or ping the main machine. Have even dropped the firewall

> netcat -u -l -p 631 & PID=$! sleep 40 ; kill $PID
Can’t grab 0.0.0.0:631 with bind : Permission denied
[1] 11240

Please Help
Thanks
