[FreeNX-kNX] redhat + cups + client printing

[bob flynn]

Hi,

I am trying to enable printer support for cups on a red hat system for nx clients.

Currently I have an NX server running fine, its the print support through nx which I am stumbling at.

I understand the that*_
_*
The ENABLE_CUPS_SUPPORT key must be activated in the /usr/NX/etc/node.cfg configuration file: 

ENABLE_CUPS_SUPPORT = "1"

and then;

Set the following key in the /usr/NX/etc/node.cfg configuration file to fit

 
CUPS_BACKEND_PATH = "/usr/lib/cups/backend"
CUPS_BIN_PATH = "/usr/bin"
CUPS_SBIN_PATH = "/usr/sbin"

The above is taken from a nx systems admin manual.

My question is relating to this bit;

CUPS_BACKEND_PATH = "/usr/lib/cups/backend"

on my system, this shows;

nx_server> pwd
/usr/lib/cups
nx_server> ls
filter

So, should I be looking elsewhere for this ?

A brief overview of the configuration.

NX server is also cups client
Cups server is a separate machine providing the cups info
The nx server simply runs a cups client which talks to the cups server to get the available printers.

I am abit confused as to what the configuration should be. My understanding is;

1. From a unix/linux client which can see a cups printer, run nxclient and enable printing.
2. This should be passed to the nx server, which sets up a dummy cups printer, which redirects back to the nx client ?

Any help would be appreciated.
