list, I'm running RH8.0

When trying to to start the "lpr" via :
/sbin/service lpd start
Starting lpd: Fatal error - Cannot bind to lpd port  ' 515'

Way that ?

Probably as it is already running i.e. it is already using that port or you are not running it as root. 515 is below 1024 which means that it needs roots rights to bind.


try running as root 'service lpd status'

you will find the various options available for each service by running service servicename

for example
/sbin/service iptables
Usage: /etc/init.d/iptables {start|stop|restart|condrestart|status|panic|save}

Thanks for any suggestion!
