next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
I want to use ACIT LPR to print from windows clients to FreeBSD
servers. This works on a FreeBSD3.2 server, but on a 4.1 server the
print job data files (dfA00...) get deleted a few seconds after being
written to a particular queue; the print job control files are not
deleted. This problem queue, hold, is setup to just hold print jobs for
later processing. Here is my printcap file:
hp|raw1:\
:lp=:\
:rm=204.177.186.50:\
:rp=text:\
:lf=/var/spool/output/hp/hp:\
:sd=/var/spool/output/hp:
hold|raw1:\
:lp=:\
:rp=text:\
:lf=/var/spool/output/hold/hold:\
:sd=/var/spool/output/hold:\
:pc=15:
rdesk|raw1:\
:lp=:\
:rm=204.177.186.174:\
:rp=text:\
:lf=/var/spool/output/rdesk/rdesk:\
:sd=/var/spool/output/rdesk:
I have the same setup on the FreeBSD 3.2 server, but don't have the
problem of the print job data files being deleted when sent to the hold
queue. Does anyone know, or have a guess, why these files are being
deleted - and how to prevent it?
Is anyone else using ACIT LPR for windows to bsd printing? - or know of
something better?
TIA.
Doug.
