Here’s a simple example. We can change the default greeting message that the FTP server issues to clients on connection, simply by changing the value of the ftpd_banner directive in /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf: For example, try changing it to this: # You may fully customize the login banner string: ftpd_banner=Welcome to the Wrox Press FTP service. Then restart the vsftpd service, so that the change takes effect. Now use your FTP client to log in to the FTP server, and you’ll be greeted with this new message: $ ftp 192.168.0.99 Connected to 192.168.0.99 (192.168.0.99). 220 Welcome to the Wrox Press FTP service. … For more information about the vsftpd FTP server, and all the configuration possibilities, refer to the man pages by typing man vsftpd and man vsftpd.conf.

It can manage: Sharing of printers between many users Authentication, so that only permitted users can print to a given printer Print queues Configuration of many printers in a single location In this section we will examine how to configure our Linux machine as a print server for managing print jobs. Print Servers on Redhat Linux 9 Red Hat Linux 9 provides two different print server software packages: cups and LPRng. The LPRng package relates the old line printer daemon, and while popular for many years is now being superseded by the more recent Common UNIX Printing System (CUPS).
