The links you gave me were very good. The configuration I have involves is different than any of the descriptors in the links, but there is one that is close. #20 describes two external networks communiating to a third that is communicating with its own network on the same subnet. I have 3 separate networks and the problem I am having is broadcasting to an internal network from a gateway machine. The gateway machine has eth0 set to an external IP address and eth1 set to a network address on 10.0.0.XXX. I can see the broadcasts coming in via eth0 with ethereal, but they are not being transmitted through eth1 to the internal network. I installed a printer on the gateway machine and this printer is being broadcast to the internal network as well as the external networks, but the printers broadcasting form the remote sites are not being broadcast internally. The third option within the links related to sending print jobs to a printer on a different subnet by setting up a printer internally that points to the remote servers may have some potential. I will play with this a little and let you know. Sure do not mind your admonition to restart cups, but I have been doing that with every change. Any other suggestions will be appreciated.
