I'm having a lousy problem with remote printing from 
a HP-UX 10.20 system. Everything went fine with HP-UX 9.05

The queue files and control files are being created on the FreeBSD
system in /var/spool/printer/

-rw-rw----  1 root  bin   86 May 19 12:02 cfA321hp
-rw-rw----  1 root  bin  874 May 19 12:02 dfA321hpl3ach9
-rw-rw-r--  1 root  bin   14 May 19 12:02 lock
-rw-rw-r--  1 root  bin   28 May 19 12:02 status

and are getting printed.

When printing from the HP-UX 10.20 machine it looks like:

-rw-rw----  1 root  bin   88 May 19 12:03 cA0017hpl3ach1
-rw-rw----  1 root  bin  971 May 19 12:03 dA0017hpl3ach1
-rw-rw-r--  1 root  bin    5 May 19 12:03 lock
-rw-rw-r--  1 root  bin   28 May 19 12:02 status

and the files are not getting printed but stay instead forever
in the spool dir.

Any clues?
