Hello Warren,
Good news... :-)
Print server is working fine now
Unfortunatly, I don't know exactly what realy makes it work
because a employee that works in such enterprise have said
to me he changed a permission of one file (I don't know how)
and rcp starts working (it wans't working, too) today.
So, I don't know if it starts working because of the changes
that either i made today or the changes that he made today.
Now, the files are figured this way:
/etc/printcap
=======================================
lp|local line printer:\
:lp=/dev/lpt0:sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp: \
:mx#0:so:sh:sb:of=/usr/lib/lp/filters/filter:sf
spo:\
:mx#0:rm=spo:rp=lp:sd=/var/spool/lpd/spo:
=======================================
# ls -l /var/spool/lpd/spo/
total 4
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root daemon 16 Jun 25 16:14 lock
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root daemon 15 Jun 25 16:14 status
Warren, thank you very much for your help.
It's realy helped me a lot.
Ronan
