Thanks to Brett Lymn , Pierre Zimmermann and Venkat Ram Reddy .

Venkat Ram suggested exactly I was expecting . I shared printer after
configuring Samba on Solaris Machine .
Ip_forwarding is disabled , I wanted that way only , hence

Now I can print from NT Machine to the Printer on inside network by opening
9100 port .

thanks a lot .

Hello Gurus,

I need to print from NT Machine to Printer using Solaris 7 Machine as
gateway . Solaris 7 Machine and NT Machine are outside firewall .
and Printer is inside . Below is little schematic .

Printer ----------||----Firewall------||----- Solaris 7 Machine ----||---NT
Machine .

Solaris 7 Machine
hme0 = connected to Firewall segment
hme1 - External Network
hme2 - External Network

Printer is on inside network  . Solaris 7 Machine has 3 Interfaces , and
configured as ip_forwarding = 0 .
NT Machine is on the same network as hme2  ,  I want to print from NT
Machine to the Printer which is on internal Network .


Option 1.

Is it possible to configure printer on Solaris Machine by configuring
firewall( allowing specific ports ) and share that printer with NT Machine
.  I am not sure whether this is possible , and if possible I am not don't
how to do that .
please advise.

Option 2 .
Again I don't know this is possible or not  !!

Allow ip_forwarding between hme2 and hme0 of solaris Machine.  { I believe
ip_forwarding is global parameter , you can not set it only between two
interfaces } and then I can configure a printer directly on NT Machine
allowing specific port /ports through firewall . Because in this case NT
Machine can access printer using Solaris Machine as gateway .

Does anybody has come across such situation or has configure Printer which
can be shared by NT Machine .
if anyone has better   ideas , you are welcome , I will summarize.

best regards,
