Help programming printer
I am trying to port an old MS-DOS program and I have run into a stumbling block. The Mess Dos program wrote directly to the printer. I can't seem to find much information on how to print from a program. Can anyone recommend information on a web page or a book that I can learn more? Or am I just making this too hard?

Machine stops responding for a minute or so?
I have a remote machine running icecast to send an internet radio stream and it also serves the web page. Every now and then it just quits responding for a minute or so. The audio stream stops, it won't dish up the web page, I can't ping it, and the ssh session I keep open doesn't respond either. There is a Linux router on the network connection and it still responds during the bad period so I don't believe it is an external network problem. This morning when it happened as soon as I could get back in I looked at the log files and the only thing that looked unusual was about the time it stopped responding there was this entry in http-access.log: 209.42.72.248 - - [20/Sep/2003:08:28:21 -0600] GET /scripts/nsiislog.dll 404 - - - which I assume was someone looking for a vulnerable IIS server? That shouldn't cause any grief should it? Does anybody have any ideas why it would just go away like that? And is there anything I could look for?

KDM won't start KDE
I just installed FreeBSD 4.8 on this machine and I set up kdm to run by changing /etc/ttys to: ttyv8 /usr/local/bin/kdm -nodaemon xterm on secure When it boots I get: login: ..time.. kdm[127]: Abnormal helper termination, code 0, signal 73 But KDM seems to start up fine and I get the login screen, but when I login (as either root or a user) the login dialog disappears and I'm left with the KDE background and the X cursor. If I goto tty0 I now have the message: ..time.. kdm[130]: no modules loaded for `kde' service and in bot /var/log/XFree86.0.log and kdm.log it has this message repeated about 4 times a second: AUDIT: ..time..: 124 XFree86: client 2 rejected from local host I searched on google for the above messages and found some discussion about PAM problems. I looked at pam.conf and noticed that xdm and gdm were listed in there, but not kdm. So I added an identical section for kdm but it doesn't seem to have made any difference. If I remove the kdm stuff from ttys and get a command line login I can run startx and KDE comes up just fine. Was there something else I needed to configure for KDM to run correctly?
