You really sure it's supposed to be making that directory at
lpd queue start time? ('queue start time' I interpret as being
when you give a command under lpc to start the queue). I'm thinking
that mebbe it doesn't get created until/unless you actually send
a document. Try just printing a simple text document to the printer
from one window and monitor the appropriate parent directory.
I don't remember offhand (I don't have a Linux box here at work
I can look at readily) but I think there should be an 'lpd-error'
file created somewhere (/var/log or /var/adm, perhaps) with that
stuff in it.
Also, is the print system (be it lpd, cups or whatevah) registered
with the syslog mechanism? I suspect it probably should be automatically
on newer distrobutions, but I recall having a hell of a time getting
PPP and other services, such as lpd/lpr, hooked in so as to be able
to do a call/callback to syslog. Dan, I think you may know what I
mean, because I certainly don't know it well enough to explain it :-)
HTH,
Bayard
