Hi=20 I am a complete newcomer to unix and have just created a dual-boot = between FreeBSD 5.2.1 and Win2K (each on a separate hard drive). Now I'm = trying to get my HP 1160 Laserjet to print dvi files. I used the filter = shown in the handbook. The filter creates a link between /dev/fd/0 and a = temporary (?) file they call hpdf$$.dvi. When I try to print a dvi file, = I get the message, "Permission denied. Cannot symlink to /dev/fd/0" The = permissions on /dev/fd/0 are: crw-rw-rw-. The filter is supposed to = print "Cannot symlink to /dev/fd/0" if the ln operation fails. My = message differs in that I also get "Permission denied." Can anyone tell me what I've done wrong? Thanks Bob Beckett
