[wplug] Some networking issues

[David Gerard Matthews]

Hello again,
I'm back on this list after some absence.  Anyway, I'm now trying to 
get my Linux box and my new PowerBook G4 to play nicely together.  
Specifically, I'm trying to share a printer and to send use ssh for 
remote X connections.  NFS and/or AppleTalk networking would also be 
nice, but not yet a priority.  At this point, I'm able to ssh between 
the machines, and use scp to transfer files back and forth, but remote 
X still isn't happening.  I'm running OS X Jaguar with the most recent 
public beta of X11 from Apple on the Mac, and RH8 on the Linux box.  I 
have "forward ssh" enabled in the ssh_config files on both machines.  
Neither machine has a permanent broadband internet connection; both 
have dialup modem connections, and I shut down the ethernet connection 
between the two machines when I start ppp on one of them.  I'm using 
10.0.1.201 and 10.0.1.202 as IP addresses.
Also, what would be the easiest way to share the printer?  My current 
plan is to have it connected to the Linux box's parallel port, but I'm 
not sure how to configure it from the Mac end of things.
Thanks,
dgm
