I have 3 systems, all 2.05R. The two remotes are dialed into ISP's in their
cities. I have /etc/printcap entries on the local system for both remotes.
After installation, both systems printed ok. One system has stopped, and I
can't find any reason for it. The status is now 'waiting for xx.xx.xx.xx to
come up'. I have rebooted both machines. /etc/hosts.lpd on the remote has
the local number in it (originally had the name). This was working fine, and
then just stopped accepting print jobs. HELP!! How can I test that lpd is
working on the remote machine for 'remote-type' jobs. (Jobs queued directly
on that machine print fine.)

What's driving me really nuts is that both machines were working fine, and
both were installed the same (actually copied one to the other and modified
a few files). Now one doesn't work, and I can't find a reason.

Thanks for any help.
