Just as a side thought, do you have the Windows machine's IP address in /etc/hosts.lpd? -Warren Block * Rapid City, South Dakota USA To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message

From a quick look at your message, I suspect that the windows side is not doing the right thing when it comes to sending the data-file for a print job.

LPD protocol screwup and ctl_renametf error
Hi all- I want to be able to print from Windows to LPD running on FreeBSD. I cannot get it to work (via the print test page option in Windows). In windows I have a printer HP LaserJet 6L, with the correct driver, using standard TCP/IP port 192.168.1.205 (where I have FreeBSD/LPD). The port is set as LPR and the Queue name is hp6LServ. The windows machine does communicate with LPD, but... On FreeBSD I run lpd -c -l -W, and `cat textfile | lpr -P hp6LServ' works fine. When I send the test page from Windows, though, I get these errors: Oct 18 12:45:33 ux-01 lpd[578]: lt_gmann.domain.com requests recvjob hp6LServ Oct 18 12:45:38 ux-01 lpd[578]: Error receiving job from lt_gmann.domain.com: Oct 18 12:45:38 ux-01 lpd[578]: protocol screwup: ^[%-12345X@PJL SET PAGEPROTECT=AUTO Oct 18 12:45:40 ux-01 lpd[579]: lt_gmann.domain.com requests recvjob hp6LServ Oct 18 12:45:40 ux-01 lpd[579]: Error receiving job from lt_gmann.domain.com: Oct 18 12:45:40 ux-01 lpd[579]: hp6LServ: ctl_renametf error link (rfA014lt_gmann.domain.com,cfA014lt_gmann.domain.com): File exists When I look in /var/spool/output/hp6LServ, yep, there are the files, though they are small, containing only the H, P, J, l, U, and N lpd lines: Docs on the subtleties on LPD seem to be in short supply. It looks like the PAGEPROTECT thing breaks the whole system, then the cannot rename seems to be Windows trying again to send the file... How can I determine what is wrong? I suspect that permissions are preventing transfer of the actual print file (given on the l line), as I cannot find it on the system.
