I've got a Solaris 2.5.1 box as well, with it. I don't
really like it, was disappointed to see it. :-(

I did that. It didn't work originally, but maybe after
a reboot.

82501? I had done a few searches, hadn't run across that bug
number.
This machine was momentarily at stable, and at that point it
would print jobs for local users and for users on other machines
in my little UNIX lan. However, the upgrade to testing/unstable
has left it such that it only accepts jobs for local users.
Any connection to port 515 from another machine gets the
REJECT NOT SERVER (in the logs with -D5) and some kind of connection
refused (from lpq, lpc, ...). netstat -1 shows that lpd is
listening to the port, and the lpd DEBUG logs show that it sees
the connection on port 515. But it immediately gives this
REJECT NOT SERVER. I have lpd.perms set WIDE OPEN, a whole
bunch of accept statements followed by a default accept.
No REJECTS anywhere.
If I had hair, I would be pulling it out. :-)
