linux remote printing

[Sam G]

hello group

was wondering if anyone has configured remote printing

i.e.
1) main server is a RHEL running on Azure
2) there are offices in NJ and GA that ssh (or telnet) into the
Houston RHEL
3) they need to be able to printers located in NJ and GA

setting up a VPN seems overkill - was wondering if LPR or CUPS -
don't mind setting up a small linux on those locations as long
as they can print from Azure

If they have a VPN tunnel between the two, then network printing is easy.

Because you mentioned SSH, then you can do the tunneling through a SSH tunnel via port forwarding. It is a bit more complicated to setup, but it does work well for securely access a server without site-to-site VPN tunnels.
