Re: SNDTCPSPLF

Hi Bruce

do both systems have the LPD and LPR daemons running ?

IIRC you need to have LPD running on the sending system and LPR running on
the receiving system for this to work.

Of course I'm at home, so if that doesn't work try the reverse, and try
having both going :)

I'm sure one of the unix guys or someone more knowledgeable will correct me
if required...
