- Patches 100305-09 and 100696-01 seem to address the same issue (lpr
- security), and both provide replacements for /usr/ucb/lpr. Neither
- patch mentions the other. What's the story here?
-
- I haven't tried using both of them together somehow. For one thing,
- "strings /usr/ucb/lpr" with 100305-09 shows /dev/lpd/printer, and the
- same thing with 100696-01 gives /dev/printer. It would seem that the
- 100696-01 patch is a later version, but it does not include
- /usr/etc/lpc or /usr/lib/lpd; however, it does include /usr/ucb/lprm.
- Go figure.
