Quite sure. As a test I did stop the daemon on my host and at exactly the same time the messages in the syslog of the print server stopped. They reappeared as soon as I issued /etc/init.d/lpd start. > Alternatively if it is lprng making these connections check > something is not driving it to do that. samba for example can do it and > so can something that is doing repeated lpstat or lpq commands. Well, I can't be sure 100%, but there's no other active process that I can think of that would do that on this system. Nothing like samba or such a beast. As a matter of fact the only thing running next to lpd during my tests was sshd. I also did check if there was something in the queue possibly causing it, but according to lpq -a the queue was empty. Another thing I tried just to be sure was to remove lprng (using apt-get remove --purge lprng). After that I reinstalled it and voila there is was again. > BTW, Debian has lprng 3.8.20 but it is stuck in unstable until I get > some major bug sorted out.

At the moment I am not feeling adventurous enough to go for the libc upgrade. I'll wait and if there don't seem too many problems I'll go for it. Sid is too much of a risk for me right now, as I wouldn't have the time to fix things if they broke in a worse than trivial way. > > Sep 6 16:20:29 sanders in.lpd[20166]: [ID 927837 mail.info] connect from > > system.org > > So sanders is the Solaris print server and system.org is you?
