I have the impression that the lpd supplied with 10.2 just ignores
the /etc/hosts.lpd -file. Since I have _no_ intentions to enter a
Personal Computer in our /etc/hosts.equiv I wonder if anyone has
successfully replaced the original lpd-spooler with a compatible
but working version.

The /etc/hosts.lpd function at 10.2 works just fine. I use it with Macs, PCs, NeXts, and other Unix hosts. *************************************************************************** * Charlie McGuire | INTERNET: mcguire@math.uiowa.edu * * Systems Programmer | mcguire@cs.uiowa.edu * * Computer Science Dept. | * * The University of Iowa | PHONE: (319) 335-2730 * ***************************************************************************

We are using the /etc/hosts.lpd capability to avoid /etc/hosts.equiv, and it seems to work just fine on SR10.2. Did you kill/restart lpd after creating/modifying the file, and are the host names the REAL host names, not /etc/hosts aliases (including the full domain if you are using named)? -- Mike Peterson, System Administrator, U/Toronto Department of Chemistry E-mail: system@alchemy.chem.utoronto.ca Tel: (416) 978-7094 Fax: (416) 978-8775

Multiple answers (thanks, guys and gals!) suggest that I'm just plain wrong. Well. Now that I'm obviously too fast in blaming Domain/OS for all and every fault on our system I'll consider other possibillities (sp?), but a refused connection with an entry in /etc/hosts.lpd and an accepted (yet finally failing) connection with an entry in /etc/hosts.equiv led me to that assumption. I guess I'll start with listening to inbound connections on the Apollos lpd-socket and see what's coming .... BTW, the client is running FTP's PC/TCP, same subnet, long unaliased name in all relevant setup-files.
