- Hi world,
-
- there was a discussion in this newsgroup some weeks ago about problems
- with lpr/lpd in SLS 0.99p2. Lpr can queue printjobs but is unable
- to start lpd again. It seemed to be the general opinion that this
- problem has to do with ownership and/or permissions of files. However,
- there was the claim of one poster that she found a bug in the lpr (or
- lpd) code.
-
- Unfortunately the discussion stopped at that point and I am left alone
- with my nonworking version of lpr. So, *please*, can anyone tell me the
- truth about lpr? Is it a question of file ownership/permissions or a
- bug? If it is a bug, is there a fix?
-
- Thank you all in advance
