Yep, lprng is pre-packaged. By now I did it to get status report from
the remote host with "lpc status blablabla", printing's still the
problem. 
I'll show you my lpd.perms:
# allow root on server to control jobs
ACCEPT SERVICE=C SERVER REMOTEUSER=root
# allow anybody to get server, status, and printcap
ACCEPT SERVICE=C LPC=lpd,status,printcap
# reject all others
REJECT SERVICE=C
# allow same user on originating host to remove a job
ACCEPT SERVICE=M SAMEHOST SAMEUSER
# allow root on server to remove a job
ACCEPT SERVICE=M SERVER REMOTEUSER=root
REJECT SERVICE=M
# all other operations allowed
DEFAULT ACCEPT

I've tried following line: ACCEPT SERVICE=P REMOTEHOST=pt5 (pt5 goes
well for DNS) but wasn't much usefull

On print-requests (echo test | lp -dhp2250sys) I still receive that "lp:
unable to print file: server-error-service-unavailable" message
