With our particular setup (lprng-3.7.4, clients forward to central
server, Solaris-8), I find that to get redirection to work, we need to
specify the printer as printer@server, eg,
lpc redirect printer1@printserver printer2@printserver
^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^^
And this likely needs to be followed by stopping and restarting lpd on
the server. (not just an "lpc reread")
Ditto for moving jobs.
This, of course, is a work-around, not a solution. But we don't have
to do it very often...
