April 24th?, you've probably sorted this now, but I think that the first things I would do is put a PC or another RS on a local hub on the same address range and try pinging eachother. If this doesn't work then replace all the Cat5 with cable that you know work. If this doesn't work, then I'd...
Are you sending Postscript or PCL to it? How about setting up an ascii queue and sending /etc/hosts to it? If you are sending PCL you may need to tag some escape codes to the start of the print. I'm afraid I don't have much experience of printing but I've sent plenty of plots to HP printers and...
I've seen some funnies like this with CDE. You can normally get it to refresh without rebooting by clicking options / restart? or is it refresh on the login welcome panel.

Hi There,
I've recently reinstalled my PC and all the application software. I installed Norton Systemworks first to help with uninstalling in the future and to correct windows errors after each install. I now seem to have reached a position where I can't save any settings such as screen...
Hi,
I have a problem with an NIS server when trying to export the maps:
updated netid
yppush: 1831-459 No response from ypxfr on centurion
pushed netid
couldn't find /etc/netmasks
Target "all" is up to date.
