Re: cups relaying remote broadcasts to a local subnet



Tom,

Thanks for your help. Sorry my explanation was lame.

Each of these Remote A, Remote B, and Remote C are separate networks in
different and remote locations.

B only has one ethernet card because the ISP has a router with nat
translation directed to its ethernet card. ie the IP address of B is
10.0.0.x internally and the router translates the external 64.70.99.20
to 10.0.0.x.

Remote A and Remote C have two internet cards each. One card is
connected to the internet and the other card is connected to the local
lan at each site. With A and C all traffic is required to go through
them to reach the internet. With B I route all traffic through it, but
the traffic is not required to go through it.

Each of these networks has a different isp, and their own gateway ie (A,
B, and C). I am getting ready to change isp on B and when that happens
it will become a two ethernet card machine as well but before I switch I
would like to be able to get cups to work behind a two ethernet card
system.

I use a subnet on the local network behind A, B, and C of 10.0.0.*.

In essence I can easily get cups to work on a subnet behind a gateway
that functions with the same subnet (B), but I can not get cups to work
on a subnet on the inside of a gateway that has an external ip on a
different subnet than the interal lan (A and C).

Sure appreciate your help!!!

This sounds like an application that could use a vpn (virtual private network)
over the internet. I haven't done this yet but have seen it used at one
company. You should be able to get information from the LPD howto's on vpn
or try googling for vpn.

HTH,
Tom

Tom,

I have not set up a VPN yet either and had wondered the same thing.
Does this mean you believe that cups is not designed to perform in the
way I the network designed?

I thought cups was a little more robust than that!!!
