[comp.sys.sun] lpd and tcpcon

schittel@geo.Uni-Koeln.DE (Christoph Schittel) (03/27/91)

I have a problem with lpd and pseudoterminals. When I make a connection
betwenn a pseudoterminal (/dev/ttyre) and a terminalserver (using nd and
tcpcon) I can do a

  cat >/dev/ttyre

and it works fine. My problem is that lpd is not making any output to
/dev/ttyre. printcap looks like:

 ...:lp=/dev/ttyre:...

I don't have the problem with Ultrix, only SunOS strikes.  nd and tcpcon
are OK.  Please help me! Am I missing something?
