Hi all,

I've setup my printer using apsfilter and created the following
printcap file:
lp|scribe:\
    :rm=scribe.ourdomain.com:\
    :sd=/var/spool/output/lpd:\
    :lf=/var/log/lpd-errs:\
    :df=/usr/local/libexec/psif:\
    :if=/usr/local/libexec/psif:

lpc status all shows the following :

# lpc status all
lp:
        queuing is enabled
        printing is enabled
        no entries in spool area
        printer idle

Doing an lpr /etc/group puts the following into /var/log/lpd-errs:

Apr  2 17:08:17 zaphod lprps[27588]: ioctl(TIOCFLUSH): Inappropriate ioctl for device
Apr  2 17:08:17 zaphod lpd[27585]: lp: job could not be sent to remote host (cfA026zaphod.ourdomain.com)

The job never reaches the printer. scribe.ourdomain.com is looked up
fine (nslookup scribe.ourdomain.com)

The system is 4.3-RC

Any idea what could be causing this ?

TIA,

--
