From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.76 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.4.1-0.1.14 i686) the old printcap file do not converted to the new format, and the even if I change it by hand it's no longer works (see results). I even try to use the new printtool (which is far worse then the old one, at least I cant find old options eg. on out HP lj5M I use 2 pages per output pages which simple disappear, sad:-((). after I reconfigure the printers those still not work. when I restart lpd I always get: ------------------------- Stopping lpd: [ OK ] Starting lpd: Warning - 'if' filter '/var/spool/lpd/hp5m/filter' does not have execute perms Warning - 'if' filter '/var/spool/lpd/canon/filter' does not have execute perms [ OK ] ------------------------- but when I change the permission from 600 to 700 and restart again: ------------------------- Stopping lpd: [ OK ] Starting lpd: Warning - permissions of 'filter' are 0700, not 0600 Warning - 'if' filter '/var/spool/lpd/hp5m/filter' does not have execute perms Warning - 'if' filter '/var/spool/lpd/canon/filter' does not have execute perms [ OK ] ------------------------- Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. upgarde from 7.0 2. try to print 3. restart lpd Actual Results: I see such logs: ------------------- Printer: hp5m@garfield (dest hp5m@hp5m.inside) Queue: no printable jobs in queue Status: subserver pid 1213 exit status 'JFAIL' at 10:28:39.950 Filter_status: sending to hp5m.inside Printer 'hp5m@hp5m.inside' - cannot open connection - Connection refused ------------------ there is no user required for printing, so I don't know from where lpd find out the hp5m user ??? ------------------ Status: IF filter 'mf_wrapper' filter msg - 'closing *main::KID3' at 19:35:44.289 Status: IF filter 'filter' filter msg - 'Make_passthrough: pid 1214, execve '/var/spool/lpd/hp5m/filter' failed - 'Permission denied'' at 10:27:52.959 Status: IF filter 'filter' filter exit status 'JABORT' at 10:27:52.959 ------------------ ....

We (Red HAT) should really fix this before next release.
I you need further log files I can send (but now I downgrade to the rh 7.0's version of lpd since I need printing).
even downgrade don't help: # /etc/init.d/lpd start Starting lpd: /usr/sbin/checkpc: error while loading shared libraries: /usr/sbin/checkpc: undefined symbol: stat /usr/sbin/lpd: error while loading shared libraries: /usr/sbin/lpd: undefined symbol: stat [FAILED]
This is an upgrade case. It is a problem that was fixed (i believe) since Wolverine. Please try the rpms available at: http://people.redhat.com/crutcher/printing And tell me if they fix your problem.
there is no i386.rpm for groff and netpbm, but I jsut downloading and try the otrhers...
ok. so it's finaly working:-) BUT it's still worse (for me) then the old printtool, since there are a few missing feature. eg: I'm not able to print two pages to one page (there was a radio button in the old printtool) and some other features. IMHO it's be nice to be able to set some postcript features in printtool. I usualy print source codes and in this case the two pages on one are very useful.
