Did you upgrade the server OS or LPRng? If you upgraded the OS, the LPRng executables were probably overwritten by the upgrade.
Rename the stock lp executables and re-create the symbolic links to the LPRng files, and you're back in business. On my OpenBSD 3.x boxen, I've created a file, lppostup to do just that: ------------------------------------- cd /usr/bin mv lp lp.org mv lpq lpq.org mv lpr lpr.org mv lprm lprm.org mv lpstat lpstat.org cd /usr/sbin mv lpc lpc.org mv lpd lpd.org mv lpracct lpracct.org ln -s /usr/local/bin/lp /usr/bin/lp ln -s /usr/local/bin/lpq /usr/bin/lpq ln -s /usr/local/bin/lpr /usr/bin/lpr ln -s /usr/local/bin/lprm /usr/bin/lprm ln -s /usr/local/bin/lpstat /usr/bin/lpstat ln -s /usr/local/sbin/lpc /usr/sbin/lpc ln -s /usr/local/sbin/lpd /usr/sbin/lpd ln -s /usr/local/sbin/lpraccnt /usr/sbin/lpraccnt ---------------------------------------- Kill the running lpd. Validate the source/destination dirs on your servers; change the entries in lppostup to the correct ones; set lppostup to executable, and run ./lppostup. Run lpd, then lpc --help to see if LPRng is running. Hope this helps.

I upgraded my server yesterday and now my lpd server isn't working. I need to copy the files out to a different print server. The files are in the que folders. How can I ftp them or otherwise move them to a different lprng print server que? lpc move does not work. Thanks!
