Ghosting Printers
On my good ol' network, we have a laser printer(on Network A), and a print
spooler(PDC)(on Network B). We've a Linux router sitting between nets A and
B, routing both IP and Appletalk(via netatalk).
The problem is, a Mac, using appletalk, on the network A, occasionally drops
it spool(Printer not found on the network), and a Mac on network B, trying
to print Directly to the Laser printer via appletalk, also randomly is
unable to print.
Most of the time it works, and after it doesn't, a few minutes later it will
work, without rebooting any machines at all.
I'm pretty sure this is a netatalk problem somehow, but it could be just
about anything...
