If you have been having problems with a) timeouts on connections b) problems with printers on parallel ports Then please update to this version. It also might speed up systems that are having problems getting accouting information quickly, but no guarantees on this one. My thanks to the folks who sent in the detailed problem reports! Patrick Powell Astart Technologies, [EMAIL PROTECTED] 9475 Chesapeake Drive, Suite D, Network and System San Diego, CA 92123 Consulting 858-874-6543 FAX 858-279-8424 LPRng - Print Spooler (http://www.astart.com) Version 3.3.19 Sat Jul 15 17:08:42 PDT 2000 Fixed the configure error message about the file utility so that it referenced the ftp://ftp.astron.com/pub/file/ site. (Note by: Raymond Lam <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>) Do write with timeout if the output device is not readable. Also if the device is readable, then it must not be a file, block device, or character device and not a tty. Forced blocking mode on file descriptors before calling select. This appears to solve the problem with 'select' failing on various devices. Statistics were bogusly computed, progress_k did not work correctly. (Patch by: Tom Fitzgerald <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>) Tried to speed up output when an OF filter is being used by not having the OF filter confirm that the banner was output, but simply proceed with no checks. This, of course, results in a bogus page count by the IF filter. But it seems to speed things up quite a bit. This also now behaves like the older versions of ifhp that did not check for end of job when stopping of filters.
