Sure. Just edit the code in LPRng/src/common/lpd_jobs.c:
if( Accounting_remote_DYN && Accounting_file_DYN ){
if( Accounting_start_DYN ){
status = Do_accounting( 0,
Accounting_start_DYN, job, Send_job_rw_timeout_DYN );
}
DEBUG1("Remote_job: accounting status %s", Server_status(status) );
if( status ){
SNPRINTF(buffer,sizeof(buffer))
"accounting check failed '%s'", Server_status(status));
SETSTATUS(job)"%s", buffer );
switch(status){
case JFAIL: break;
case JHOLD: Set_flag_value(&job->info,HOLD_TIME,time((void *)0)); break;
case JREMOVE: Set_flag_value(&job->info,REMOVE_TIME,time((void *)0)); break;
>>>> and you add yours here:
case 10: Print_nasty_message; status = 0; break;
>>>>
default: Set_str_value(&job->info,ERROR,buffer); break;
}
Set_hold_file(job, 0 );
goto exit;
}
}
