[comp.unix.questions] remote plotting

gt3930c@prism.gatech.EDU (10/22/90)

 	I was hoping someone out there might be able to help me with
a small problem. We have access to a number of machines, but only one
has an hpgl plotter attached to it ( the plotter is /dev/ttyd3). Is there
some way we could access it from other machines? I was thinking along the
lines of some mail type server, where you would send mail to plotter@...
and if there is something in /usr/mail/plotter the file gets plotted.
Any help solving this problem would be appreciated.
