You will sometimes have better luck if you 'lpc abort' the queue, wait a few seconds, and then 'lpc start' it. Of course, that doesn't solve the actual problem... >I believe that lpr/lpd is not resetting after receiving a >Busy/Ready (or Nack/Ack) signal. > >Has anyone else seen this problem before? I have not heard of it. I'd like to see some actual proof of what is happening (like a tcpdump) before assuming that it's lpd's fault. Mind you, I'm quite willing to believe it's lpd's fault, but I can't very well look into the problem unless I know what sequence of packets is causing it. -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@gilead.netel.rpi.edu Senior Systems Programmer or gad@freebsd.org Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute or drosih@rpi.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
