Hi I am trying to print to a Netware prionter using Potato and apsfilter. I had this running fine using the Debain supplied kernel but I have now compiled my own 2.2.10 kernel and I can't print anymore.
lpc reports the following when I try and start the printer:- lpc> start all ascii: printing enabled lpc: connect: Connection refused couldn't start daemon lp: printing enabled lpc: connect: Connection refused couldn't start daemon raw: printing enabled lpc: connect: Connection refused couldn't start daemon remote: printing enabled lpc: connect: Connection refused couldn't start daemon lpc> Printing anything also gives connection refused. My printcap looks like this :- ascii|lp1|ljet4-a4-ascii-mono|ljet4 ascii mono:\ :lp=/dev/lp0:\ :sd=/var/spool/lpd/ljet4-a4-ascii-mono:\ :lf=/var/spool/lpd/ljet4-a4-ascii-mono/log:\ :af=/var/spool/lpd/ljet4-a4-ascii-mono/acct:\ :if=/var/lib/apsfilter/filter/aps-ljet4-a4-ascii-mono:\ :mx#0:\ :sh: # lp|lp2|ljet4-a4-auto-mono|ljet4 auto mono:\ :lp=/dev/lp0:\ :sd=/var/spool/lpd/ljet4-a4-auto-mono:\ :lf=/var/spool/lpd/ljet4-a4-auto-mono/log:\ :af=/var/spool/lpd/ljet4-a4-auto-mono/acct:\ :if=/var/lib/apsfilter/filter/aps-ljet4-a4-auto-mono:\ :mx#0:\ :sh: # raw|lp3|ljet4-a4-raw|ljet4 auto raw:\ :lp=/dev/lp0:\ :sd=/var/spool/lpd/ljet4-raw:\ :lf=/var/spool/lpd/ljet4-raw/log:\ :af=/var/spool/lpd/ljet4-raw/acct:\ :if=/var/lib/apsfilter/filter/aps-ljet4-a4-raw:\ :mx#0:\ :sh: remote|remotep|LJ4 remote on ethernet:\ :lp=/dev/null:sh:\ :sd=/var/spool/lpd/remote:\ :if=/usr/local/bin/nprint-script: Finally lsmod reports the following:- dasterdly:~# lsmod Module Size Used by 3c509 5812 1 parport_pc 5620 1 (autoclean) lp 4476 1 parport 6820 1 [parport_pc lp] ipx 12188 3 vfat 11196 0 (unused) fat 25120 0 [vfat] ncpfs 26000 0 (unused) dasterdly:~# I can't see any boot errors in any log files or any other lpd errors for that matter. This is driving me nut. What did I do wrong with my kernel. Pat PS I can see all the Novell servers with slist.
