Here is the line that fails within lpd with you try to print a file stored on a MFS using a sym link (i.e. lpr -s <filename>): (Oh yeah -- 1.1.5.1+) /usr/src/usr.sbin/lpr/lpd/printjob.c, line 764+: * Check to see if data file is a symbolic link. If so, it should * still point to the same file or someone is trying to print something * he shouldn't. */ if ((stb.st_mode & S_IFMT) == S_IFLNK && fstat(f, &stb) == 0 && (stb.st_dev != fdev || stb.st_ino != fino)) return(ACCESS); I now return you to your regularly scheduled program! : James Robinson : james@hermes.cybernetics.net ::See the screaming hot black :FreeBSD|XFree86 :The best things in life are Free:: steaming iridescent : Frank Zappa : Music is the best ::naughahyde python screaming : HTTP Server : http://hermes.cybernetics.net/ :: steam roller!
