The lpd(8) daemon logs via the syslog(3) interface on the LOG_PR facility. Have a look at what you get when you do this: 1) Add this line to /etc/syslog.conf: lpr.* /var/log/lpd-all 2) Create the file /var/log/lpd-all: touch /var/log/lpd-all 3) Restart the syslogd(8) daemon: kill -HUP `cat /var/run/syslog.pid` You can read this up for yourself (well, not the verbatim commands) in the lpd(8), syslog.conf(5) and syslogd(8) manual pages. I have absolutely no idea how much information you'll get in lpd-all, but it's a start. Ciao, Sheldon.
