Both are running under root and one is running in "nanslp" the other "select". This is something I just noticed after installig CUPS. That exercise was a bit of ordeal and finally with some help from the author of a great "how to" article I succeeded in making almost everything work. (except the web interface to administration and documentation). One point of note, in this process CUPS inserts its own lpd in a different directory from BSD normal directory, as a result, it is necessary to remove the original lpd and create a symlink to the new one. Could this result in an extra process? BTW the sizes of the two processes differ also, one is 1036K and the other 980K - hmmm...?
