[pits, i wish we had a FAQ. i know this has come up before. --bw]
i would appreciate it if someone could glance at the following
remote printer configuration and see what is broken. all i've
done so far is to create the /etc/qconfig lines with info.
if you need additional information, please let me know.
alternatively, would someone like to mail me their bsd lpd.c and
friends they've ported to aix.

enq: (FATAL ERROR): 0781-313 Cancel all not supported on remote queues.

The message: rlp2: decix: /usr/lib/lpd: lp2: Your host does not have line printer access Indicates that you have not enabled the local host as a printer user on host decix. Go to decix, and add your host to it's "/etc/hosts.lpd" file, then issue a kill -2 to the process id of the lpd daemon on that system. Then go back to your system and start up the queue: qadm -U rlp2 Alternatively, to get rid of the file in the queue (it is queued on your machine, not the remote machine, since the remote machine is not even talking to you), use the command: qcan -x 1 Where "1" is the job number as listed in your "output of lpq" insert.
