Does anyone know of an implementation of LPD for a PC? Tim Kidd.

The nice people at ftp Software, Inc. are completing a beta test of a lpd. I participated in the beta test and was very pleased with the results. Although it was a beta test, the documentation was very good and I was able to install and run the program with no difficulty. One minor problem might be that they do not have a generic version of the program available. You must run it under one of the proprietary ftp kernels. I ran it with the 3c523 kernel, I can NOT use the Clarkson packet driver. I imagine that ftp Software will support a generic version in due course. The beta test is being managed by Mr. Bruce Campbell (617) 246-0900. I don't know what his internet address is (you might try jbvb@ftp.vax.com). I have no connection to ftp Software other than as a satisfied customer. Clem Taylor - ER&E Clinton Township, NJ (201) 730-3338
