Hi,
I've had a lot of problems with papd since I've switched to RH 6.1.
At first, lpr didn't work at all, but that was fixed by upgrading to
the newest lpr. However, that didn't fix printing from the Macs. In
fact, printing now works erratically, fails most frequently with Macs
running OS9. Would you mind detailing how you got lpr back up and
running. I would be most grateful.
