What to do? What to do? I've seen a couple of these lately, but I don't know what's causing it. lpd seems to be having trouble creating a pipe. Do you have KTRACE enabled in your kernel? Then do this as root # ktrace -i lpd This will create a file ktrace.out. Put it on ftp://ftp.lemis.com/incoming/ktrace.out and send me a mail message, and I'll look at it. Greg
