Hi all,
I wish to be able to print to printers on a remote cups server from
gnome applications.
I figured I could just create an ssh tunnel like this:
$ ssh -L 1631:localhost:631 me@remote.host
then set the cups server to localhost:1631 in /etc/cups/client.conf
But no printers appear in the gnome printer admin app.
It does work work if I create the tunnel as root and bind to the
privileged port 631.
Does anybody have any suggestions?
cheers
dc
