I'm looking for a filter that will allow me to add headers to
existing postscript files (i.e. file names and date stamps).
Mpage comes close with the -X option, but does not allow me to
specify the header content. Is there anything else packaged for
Debian that will do this?

Where I can I get the CD-ROM. I can't get through to Adaptec, either on

Incidently, we had the same

The machine is used to provide masquerading for several Windows, Linux and

With Debian, FTP doesn't work from behind a standard masquerading firewall.
