Hi folks. I'm experimenting with lprng on a client machine,
the server is still running the normal BSD lpr/lpd for now.
/etc/printcap says
lp|bj20|epson printer
:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
ps|postscript
:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
This works fine for root;
[7:56pm] [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc# lpq
Printer: lp is [EMAIL PROTECTED]
no entries
[7:57pm] [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc# lpq -Pps
no entries
but not for a user;
[7:58pm] [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> lpq
Printer: lp is [EMAIL PROTECTED]
/usr/sbin/lpd: ps: Malformed from address
silly's hosts.equiv says that hamishpc is allowed to use the printers.
root can print fine to either queue from hamishpc.
However the ps queue won't work for a vanilla user.
lpr doesn't work either;
[8:00pm] [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> ls | atp | lpr -Pps
usr/sbin/lpd: ps: Malformed from address
job 'cfA880hamishpc.rising.com.au' transfer to [EMAIL PROTECTED] failed after 1
attempts
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
