      I did a search on this forum and did not find an answer to this, sorry if I missed it.  I am also not deeply versed in networking, although smart enough to use a pfSense box ;D

      I have a bed and breakfast and have setup a pfSense 1.2.2 box with an opt1 wireless captive portal.

      In the common area I want to locate a laptop and wireless printer for guest access.
      DSL –-- PF-SENSE(BBTS) -------- HP ProCurve (single VLAN, subnet 1 devices connected here )
                                                  \                  office computer
                                                  \                 
                                                    \               
                                                   
                                                      \  Linksys WRT54G Router (DHCP turned off at router)
                                                            (recommended firewall rules and DHCP at pfSense)
                                                                      Linksys AP in second building
                                                                      Guest Laptops
                                                                      Wireless HP Printer  ( logs in as 192.168.5.205)

      Is there a tutorial for setting up the pfSense box and the HP printer to be visible for everyone's computer?

      Thanks for pointers and help.

      Cheers,Byron
