Removing the line and restarting lpd/retrying printing didn't do anything. No mails, no error messages, no printing. By cd'ing into /var/spool/lpd to look after queued jobs I noticed that the whole file structure under that directory belongs to "root:frank" whereas the /var/spool/lpd/-directory is owned by "root:daemon". Does that matter? Greetings Frank -- GU d- s:+ a+ C+>$ UBS>$ P L- !E--- W N+@ !o K--? !w--- O !M- !V- PS+ PE Y? !PGP- t+ 5 X !R tv- b++ DI !D G e h+ r- y?
