We're running sunos4.0.1 on sun3's, sun4's, and sun386i's and we ran into an lpd bug. When we lpr -s a file, and the file resides in an nfs mounted file system, lpd rejects it with the error Your printer job was not printed because it was not linked to the original file The problem appears to be that lpd doesn't expect negative devs in the S line in the cf file; consequently, lpd thinks the symlink has been tampered with. The negative dev comes from stat'ing a file in an nfs mounted filesystem. No idea if this is fixed in sunos4.0.3. Ron Stanonik stanonik@nprdc.navy.mil
