Re: Openvpn and Network mapping

by Levasseur, Kenneth

Do you need to route the entire network, or just access the NAS and other hosts? I think you could do something with SSH reverse tunneling, given you have a VPS. On the NAS: ssh -R <desired_port>:localhost:22 user@<vps_address> Then, once you've ssh'd into the VPS from anywhere else: ________________________________ From: Krichevsky, Nicholas Jacob via WLUG <wlug(a)lists.wlug.org> Sent: Sunday, February 3, 2019 1:42:35 AM To: Worcester Linux Users' Group General Discussion Cc: Krichevsky, Nicholas Jacob Subject: [WLUG] Openvpn and Network mapping So I've found myself in an unfortunate situation where I cannot port forward on my router.

Unless the UPS is very beefy, I wold not do this with laser printers. When My laser printer is on the battery side of my UPS, it resets the UPS when I start a print. I think it has something to due with a current inrush for a heater that has to run before printing. Of course newer printers may be better about this.

Re: struggling w/ reliable printers on CUPS in small office

by E Johnson

One thing that occurred to me: I had a problem like this rather frequently in the last apartment. It had electricity issues: the ancient refrig was on same circuit as half of the apartment --including the elex outlets I had to use for the computers & printer, etc. The lights used to dim slightly whenever the refrig compressor came on. I used to hear the printer resetting itself several times/week. The printer and CUPS often disagreed -- quit working together. This is a decent HP Deskjet, on the compatible list. But printers seem to be sensitive beasts. Restart CUPS usually fixed the problem, altho occasionally I would have to completely disconnect the printer, power, data cable & all, then wait a few min before hooking it all back up, then restart CUPS. Now here at the new place since last May, there are no fluctuating elex issues, and no CUPS - printer issues either. May I suggest, if you don't have already: plug all the printers into a decent UPS (rather than zip strip or whatever), which should keep the elex supply steady for your printers. I have a spare UPS here that I am not using. I bought it several years ago for just this reason, but it works only with grounded outlets which we did not have at the old place (they were "fake" grounded). I would gladly contribute this UPS if you would like to see if it helps. I am in Worcester.

I have had this problem with a couple of older distributions of linux. The problem now does not occur with the same network printer that I have had for a long time. I have a single user setup, so I do not know if is relevant information. Perhaps one machine on the network has a buggy version of CUPS? Doing a quick google search I found: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=202022 pypi suggests considering changing the ErrorPolicy for a similar problem. I have never done this, so good luck.
