i've tried: lcp -s -h /dev/tty35:AUNT:SISPRINT tty35 is not enabled in /etc/ttys, setup on AUNT as per manual. cat >>/dev/tty35 returns... no such device or address and then: reboot, make entries in /etc/printcap for LAT printer LAT is started in /etc/rc.local lpr -P latprinter returns no such device or address This system has devices made for lta0 and lta1. i can run a test on the port defined as SISPRINT and get output. Am i doing something wrong? Is this supported on the 100's? Help. -- ...utzoo\ phone: +1 416 845 9430 x446 uucp: ...uunet!mnetor!yunexus!sis!doug ...utai/ attcan/ internet: sis!doug@Nexus.YorkU.ca

You do have the lat support config'ed to support 32 lines? You need: option LAT pseudo-device lat pseudo-device lta 32 -- George Robbins - now working for, uucp: {uunet|pyramid|rutgers}!cbmvax!grr but no way officially representing arpa: cbmvax!grr@uunet.uu.net Commodore, Engineering Department fone: 215-431-9255 (only by moonlite)

This will not work. You can either make the association in the printcap file with the 'op' and 'os' flags and issue the lcp command as 'lcp -s -h /dev/tty35' or delete the 'op' and 'os' flags from your printcap file and use the lcp command as you did in your example. -- David White Grass Valley Group, Inc.

In article <559@sis.UUCP> i write:

# cat >>/dev/tty35 returns...
# no such device or address
#
and then i tried pstat -t and only saw 16 lta lines... BOZO,
in kernel config, enabling lta device only gives a default
of 16 lines, i was trying line 32 (we have a 4 port dz board).
Nothing like posting a problem to help you find it ;-(.
Oh well, back to the woodshed.
Thanks for all of the replies folks,
