  •  
    "Set Up Your Windows, Mac, or Linux Print Server For set up instructions, see Connect your classic printers with Google Cloud Print. The process to set up printers on Windows, Mac, and Linux print servers is identical to the directions to set up a printer attached to a Windows, Mac, or Linux computer. Networked printers print fine with Google Cloud Print, using the same setup you use to configure individual printers. If you're using a "headless" Linux print server, click here for Google Cloud Print installation instructions. Note: If you have 2-step verification enabled for your account, with step 7 in these directions, you will need to put an application-specific password in the password field instead of your regular password when you first set up Google Cloud Print. Printer Sharing You can share your printer with anybody using a Google Apps account or a Google Account. "

Mac OS X v10.6: Active Directory binding lost on network transition (.local domain) - 0 views

  • Symptoms If network access is interrupted, a Mac OS X v10.6 client may not be able to reconnect to an Active Directory domain whose name ends in ".local".
  • Resolution Lengthen the default timeout for .local name lookups by editing the following file: /System/Library/SystemConfiguration/IPMonitor.bundle/Contents/Info.plist The key/value pair is: <key>mdns_timeout</key> <integer>2</integer> The integer value is in seconds; changing it to at least 5 should allow the Mac OS X client to reconnect to the Active Directory domain after a network interruption. In some configurations, a larger timeout value may be required. You can change this value by using the sudo command and a text editor to edit the preference file directly. Or you can use the Terminal command below, making sure to enter it all on a single line: sudo /usr/libexec/PlistBuddy -c 'Set :mdns_timeout 5' /System/Library/SystemConfiguration/IPMonitor.bundle/Contents/Info.plist
