i have another problem related to printing from a Windows NT Server. Under
Redhat 5.0 with lpr-0.21 or Redhat 5.1 with lpr-0.31 i'm not able to print any
job. When i stop the queue, i see the job in the spool directory but when i
start the queue the printfile get's eaten and nothing is printed. :-(
As a solution i grabbed the lpr-0.19 package nad recompiled the package under Redhat
5.0 and 5.1. After that my printing is fine.
Any Comments ??
Wolfgang
