Setting up LAT printers on DS3100... help...

[Bob Wheeler]

Has anyone tried to do reverse LAT from a DECstation 3100
to set up a printer? We have a Datability terminal server that
we have used to set up printers for a VMS node and we would
like to add another printer for the ULTRIX node.

I created the LAT devices (they seem to work, we can log in via
the terminal server)

I then went into /etc/tty and changed one of the LAT lines to

tty16	none 	    	      vt100	off

I then did "kill -HUP 1" to set it up.

Then I edited the printcap file and did...

lp|lp0:\
	:af=/usr/adm/lpacct:\
	:br#9600:\
	:fc#0177777:\
	:fs#03:\
	:if=/usr/lib/lpdfilters/ln03of:\
	:lf=/usr/adm/lperr:\
	:lp=/dev/tty16:\
	:mc#20:\
	:mx#0:\
	:of=/usr/lib/lpdfilters/ln03of:\
	:op=PORT_19:\
	:pl#66:\
	:pw#80:\
	:rw:\
	:sd=/usr/spool/lpd:\
	:ts=DENISE:\
	:xc#0177777:\
	:xf=/usr/lib/lpdfilters/xf:\
	:xs#044000:

Terminal server DENISE has many printers on it that work from the
VMS side. 

Then I did a "lcp -h /dev/tty16:DENISE:PORT_19" to reserve the port
for host initiated requests.

When I print to the device it can't connect, when I copy a file to /dev/tty16
it says...

# cp printcap /dev/tty16
cp: /dev/tty16: Can't assign requested address
# 

Any ideas??
