Following up on this, I ran lpd -F under strace, to see
if that might shed some light on things.
There are a few attempts to open
/var/run/.nscd_socket
which all fail.
I hadn't known the nsswitch was in use with newer
Debian systems. Nsswitch.conf does exist, and in there
it lists db as one argument. However, /lib/libnss_db.so...
does not exist on my machine! According to the man
page, this shouldn't be true. Does this mean a
broken set of packages somewhere on Debian? That
libnss_db should be required for LPRng?
Ideas?
Thanks,
Gord
