I downloaded the newest version of Lprng. I ran ./install, and then
make with no problems. 

However, when I ran make insall, I got this error message:

error reading information on service lpr: No such file or directory
error reading information on service lpr: No such file or directory
error reading information on service lpr: No such file or directory
error reading information on service lpr: No such file or directory

error reading information on service lprng: No such file or directory
error reading information on service lprng: No such file or directory

If I issue the command lpr, I get his error message:

Status Information:
 sending job 'root@localhost+986' to printer@localhost
 connecting to 'localhost', attempt 1
 connected to 'localhost'
 requesting printer printer@localhost
 job 'root@localhost+986' transfer to printer@localhost failed
  error 'NONZERO RFC1179 ERROR CODE FROM SERVER' with ack 'ACK_FAIL'
  sending str '^Bprinter' to printer@localhost
 error msg: 'spool queue for 'printer' does not exist on server localhost.localdomain'
 error msg: '   non-existent printer or you need to run 'checkpc -f''

If I run checkpc -f, I get no error messages, and if I check in /var/,
then I find the folder for my printer.

I am running Mandrake 8.1. My printer is an HP6mp, and it works if
I send a file directly to the device. If I type cat tiger.ps >
/dev/lp0, then I get a picture of a tiger. 

I have read the INSTALL directions several times, but could not find
anything to help me. I have tried turning off lpd and then installing,
but I still get the same error message.

Thank you
