Comment 1 Bernhard Rosenkraenzer 2000-09-23 14:49:35 UTC 
Works for me... What is your client running?
Comment 2 Crutcher Dunnavant 2000-10-01 15:30:26 UTC 
This has to be a local problem, people would notice if no one could use lpd to
print.
Lacking feedback, I am closing this. If you wish to give us some more
configuration information,
feel free to reopen it.
Comment 3 Need Real Name 2000-10-05 07:01:13 UTC 
| have added the client IP address and hostname in /etc/hosts, then lpd was worked fine.
Thank you.
