I've been trying to get printing going on my new bsd 4.5 system and not having too much success. I tried installing cups, first through the package and then the ports, but that didn't work. So I installed apsfilter and it printed out a fine testpage. Problem is that I can't get lpd to start on boot ( or any other way for that matter). Initially I install KDE and I believe it installed cups base. Here's what I've done so far.. in etc/rc.conf entered a line.. lpd_enable="YES" created a file in /usr/local/etc/rc.d called lpd.sh containing: [ -x /usr/sbin/lpd] && /usr/sbin/lpd && echo -n " lpd" chmod +x lpd.sh Of course if I issue the command "whereis lpd" the following is returned: lpd: /usr/share/man/man8/lpd.8.gz /usr/src/usr.sbin/lpr/lpd I would install the lprng package, but that is dependant on lpd isn't it? When I go from single to multi-user I get an error message that /usr/sbin/lpd can't be found (or something to that effect). Looking in /usr/sbin/ there is only lptcontrol and lptest there. Can someone point me in the direction to go from here? thanks dale dmesg: lpt0: on ppbus0 lpt0: Interrupt-driven port ppi0: on ppbus0 ad0: 28629MB [58168/16/63] at ata0-master UDMA100 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
