I thought the sequence was - lpr (prints ok) - lpr again (hangs, lpq says interrupted system call)
Are you aware of the strace program? It may be able to attach to the process and tell us what it is trying to do. Ideally you would attach before the first print, detatch, re-attach for the second print. That way there are two traces. Also running lpd on the command line with the flags -F -D=lpr and capturing the output will help too. - Craig -- Craig Small GnuPG:1C1B D893 1418 2AF4 45EE 95CB C76C E5AC 12CA DFA5 Eye-Net Consulting http://www.enc.com.au/ MIEE Debian developer csmall at : enc.com.au ieee.org debian.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
