I assume that when you start lpd by hand, you log in as root and type: /usr/sbin/lpd -p right? I don't know what would cause this (but then I am not running stable as much these days). Look for error messages from lpd in /var/log/lpd-errs or in /var/log/messages. Try adding a '-l' (lowercase L, for "logging") to the lpd_flags. See if that helps. -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@eclipse.acs.rpi.edu Senior Systems Programmer or gad@freebsd.org Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute or drosih@rpi.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
