Re: How to start CUPS?
It appears that your shell search path prefers the bsd lpr commands instead of the ones from CUPS that are most likely installed in /usr/pkg/bin instead of /usr/bin by pkgsrc. You can rename the bsd files to something else, or copy them over, but its likely a future upgrade will some time replace them again How do I set lp and lpq to be the ones that come with CUPS? Pierre

I renamed lpr, lpq, etc. in the base to lpr.bak, etc. Joe
Re: How to start CUPS?
I have CUPS running on dogla (DFly box) and set the CUPS on chausie (Ubuntu box) to share the printer. It shows up on dogla's printer list on port 631. I tried to print to it from the command line; lp is not the CUPS lp but something else: -bash-3.2$ man -t cp|lp -d hp lpr: Unable to connect to /var/run/printer: No such file or directory lpr: Check to see if the master 'lpd' process is running. jobs queued, but cannot start daemon. How do I set lp and lpq to be the ones that come with CUPS? Pierre -- li fi'u vu'u fi'u fi'u du li pa
