[comp.os.vms] Wanted: LPD for VMS machines

spector@GBA.NYU.EDU (David HM Spector) (09/02/87)

As I am sitting here re-inventing the wheel, it dawned on me that _someone_
must have alreay done this...

I am writing an lpd clone for a VMS machine running Wollongong's WIN/vx
TCP/IP so that our Unix machines may access our shiny new DEC PrintServer40.

Seeing how this is a non-trivial thing (ever looked at the "protocol" that
lpd uses? ...ugh!), I'd love to hear from anyone who has such a beast and
would send me a copy of the source (in either C, Pascal, or even Fortran).

please send responses directly to me, I'll summarize...

Thanks much,
  Dave Spector
