Re: LPRng: Cannot print to a remote LPRng
I don't think it is best to have inetd controlling lpd. I always have run mind as a free standing daemon. lpd will watch port 515 and respond to requests.

Re: LPRng: Cannot print to a remote LPRng
Obviously, you did not have tried to simply start 'lpd'. I'm using now Debian (previously SuSE) on my production server and I received the same message day by day; until I get in count that the self lpd server was not started (then the error message). Simply try it. And, BTW, lpd in inetd is not recommended (security reasons), even if you are using xinetd (more secure). Regards Alberto I don't think it is best to have inetd controlling lpd. I always have run mind as a free standing daemon. lpd will watch port 515 and respond to requests.

If you're sure that lpd is actually running on lpdx, the next place to look is /etc/lpd.perms.
