I must be missing something obvious. I've written a filter in python
and placed it in the proper location /usr/local/libexec/filters/.
Then updated printcap accordingly.
holdqueue|server queue \
:tc=.srvr:server:rw \
:lp=/tmp/holdqueue \
:filter=/usr/local/libexec/filters/txt2pdf [EMAIL PROTECTED]
:oh=assurbanipal.pp.asu.edu
Yet, when I print, I get
lpq -lll -Pholdqueue
Printer: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 'server queue'
Queue: no printable jobs in queue
Server: no server active

Still, the txt2pdf has perms 751. Ive run checkpc and lpc reread.
Any hints as to what is happening?
(yes, python does live in /usr/local/bin/python)
