When we were running ifhp-3.5.10, I have noticed that in many or all of spool directories files with names like ifhpkbaG7h, ifhpQFa4jW, ifhpxqaWnC, etc started to appear and stay there forever. In the spooling directory of our busiest network printers there are over 100 such files and they're using quite a lot of disk space. According to file utility, all of the are postscript files. Not every print job leaves a file in the spool directory. Could this be somehow be related to my problem with vanishing print jobs that I mentioned a few days ago? Earlier today I downgraded ifhp to version 3.5.1 and nuked spool directories for all queues. As of right now, I don't see any of those ifhpXXXXXX files in the spool directories. So, I am assuming there is a bug in ifhp-3.5.1. In addition, because of increasing user confusion, we have downgraded LPRng to version 3.6.26. I haven't heard of any complaints about print jobs vanishing from the queue at random today, so I guess, this was introduced by a bug in LPRng-3.8.15 and/or ifhp-3.5.10
