I wanted to print to syslog, instead of paper, so i created the syslog backend for cups.

You have to place this file in /usr/lib/cups/backend and make sure is has the execute bit on.

#!/bin/bash

logger $*
env | logger
cat $6 | logger

If you have named this file 'syslog' then configure your printer with a device URL starting with syslog:

To install Sun/Oracle java 6 on Ubuntu Lucid do the following in a Terminal window:

sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-fonts sun-java6-bin sun-java6-plugin

If this says: E: Package sun-java6-jre has no installation candidate then do:

sudo bash -c " echo 'deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu lucid partner' >>/etc/apt/sources.list "
sudo apt-get update

And try again.

When you have installed the packages you should do:

sudo update-java-alternatives -v -s java-6-sun

To allow DHCPv6

ip6tables -A OUTPUT -o ppp0 -p udp --dport 547 -j ACCEPT
ip6tables -A INPUT  -i ppp0 -p udp --dport 546 -j ACCEPT

If you want your showcenter to automatically find your oxylbox webserver, then you have to install avahi-daemon, and create a file:

/etc/avahi/services/difi.service file with the following content:


<?xml version="1.0" standalone='no'?>
<!DOCTYPE service-group SYSTEM "avahi-service.dtd">
<!-- See avahi.service(5) for more information about this configuration file -->
<service-group>
<name replace-wildcards="yes">Oxylbox on %h</name>
<service>
<type>_difi._tcp</type>
<port>8000</port>
</service>
</service-group>


8000 is the port number of the apache instance of your oxylbox server.
