But is this the Debian way? What will happen when I upgrade lpr package? So I tweaked as needed (by changing service-name to printer and added "-l" lpd logging switch). Then I stopped lpd, added lpd to my /etc/hosts.allow, disabled it from starting in /etc/init.d/lpd and restarted inetd. My remote lpq says "waiting for pilchuck to come up". The server lpr.log says a few times: Feb 15 15:36:50 pilchuck lpd[9780]: bind: Address already in use Feb 15 15:36:50 pilchuck lpd[9780]: exiting So it looks like inetd is spawning lpd; the new lpd is trying to bind but inetd already did.
