Title: RedHat server and ICElp running on XP
Post by: GymSource on January 30, 2008, 02:06:59 pm

I have the latest version of RedHat Server and I was able to install the ICElpd components on it – it seems to be working fine.  But when I try running the Windows (XP) ICElp client to access the server to pickup the flat files for local printing – it can’t get through.  I’m guessing it’s some sort of iptables setting but I don’t know RedHat well enough to figure it out.  I’ve tried

iptables –A INPUT –p tcp –m tcp –dport 2346 –j ACCEPT
iptables –A INPUT –p udp –m udp –dport 2346 –j ACCEPT
iptables –A OUTPUT –p tcp –m tcp –dport 2346 –j ACCEPT
iptables –A OUTPUT –p udp –m udp –dport 2346 –j ACCEPT

the firewall is not active

I’ve also tried using telnet:

telnet SERVERNAME 2346

from the server itself and remote workstations but can’t get through either

Please let me know if there is something else I can try.

Got it

The /etc/services file had not been modified with icelpd 2346/tcp

Good catch!

When installing icelpd you need to add the line:

icelpd          2346/tcp

to /etc/services and restart inetd or xinetd
