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:

        :af=/var/spool/lpd/ljet4-a4-auto-mono/acct:\
        :if=/var/lib/apsfilter/filter/aps-ljet4-a4-auto-mono:\
        :mx#0:\
        :sh:

        :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

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.

PS I can see all the Novell servers with slist.
