Hi,

This question regarding the LPD printer configuration.

We have a host system (FreeBSD) "BSDServer" with local printer (lp)
attached , configured and in network.
We have another Windows NT system "NTStation" in the network.
In Windows NT it supports the LPR printing using RFC 1179 protocol.
We want to print a file from windows NT system using LPR to the
"BSDserver" printer(lp).
We have entered the IP address of the windows NT system in
/etc/hosts.lpd file of "BSDserver".
Now when we try to print a file from NTsataion we get error saying
"Error: print server did not accept request.  Job aborted."

So please guide us how to configure and print file from NT station to
BSDServer.

Thanx in advance.

Regards
Arul.
