Hello, > I am puzzled. You say that the 'lpr_gwy' program is dying? > And that it is getting a '0 length file'?
lpr_gwy's the netware module that sends print jobs to a unix lpd. when I'm using berkeley lpd sometimes I see in the netware console the message "... will not be sent. reason: file ___ is of zero lenght". if I switch to lprng the server won't print this message anymore, but instead, abends lpr_gwy. > But WHY is it trying to send a 0 length file? Good question.. I couldn't find an answer too. > I suspect you have a Novell problem here, and that the symptom is when > LPRng sends a 'Sorry, do not accept 0 length jobs' error back to the > Novell gateway that the Novell gateway dies. That's exactly the problem. Is LPRng using the same "language" as berkeley LPD, when sending this error message? I think netware understands a LPD error, but not a LPRng one. > You should contact Novell and get the latest release of the lpr_gwy > that does not have these problems. I'm using the latest version and when we contact their support, they say "oh, you're running an unsupported OS."
