Try putting "auto" in /etc/modules, and make sure kerneld is running. This is how it is running on my linux server (which has a printer attached that's used by the whole network), and I never have to mess with it. This appears in syslog: Mar 14 18:27:35 gatekeeper kernel: lp0: using parport0 (polling). I have had no problems yet doing it this way. YMMV. -- Jeremy L. Gaddis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
