Well, this thread seemed to die.... I still can't get the
daemon to print anything.
My setup:
kernel 0.99pl0 w/ tcp/ip compiled in.
apple personal laserwriter on ttys2
BSD lpr binaries from tsx-11
/usr/etc/printcap entry:
lp|local laserwriter:\
:lp=/dev/ttys2:sd=/usr/spool/lw:\
:br#9600:\
:mx#0:pw#1000:\
:sh:sf
/usr/etc/lp* setuid root, setgid daemon
/usr/spool/lw setuid daemon, setgid daemon.
daemon is in /etc/passwd & /etc/group
/dev/ttys2 is setuid daemon (have tried with setuid root too)
/usr/etc/inet/hosts.lpr contains the line:
brunhilda (my machine - don't ask)
I also have
/usr/etc/inet/hosts.equiv with
brunhilda
My problem is: lpr spools, but the daemon never tries to print.
Does anyone have a working setup similar to this?
Help would be greatly appreciated.
regards
Johan
