[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls -l /usr/lib/cups/backend/lpd -rwx------ 2 root root 20432 2008-04-23 05:14 /usr/lib/cups/backend/lpd Just so you know. I am 90% certain this is a kernel bug. I see this in ubuntu >2.6.22 amd64 and I see it in debian >2.6.22 amd64. I filed a bug report with the kernel devs of debian: Bug#478062: Info received (Bug#478062: (Kernel >2.6.22.3-amd64 will not print to cups network printer)) If you have access to that, you can read what I have done. No solution as of yet. I compiled source from 2.6.22 up to 2.6.24-1 and all kernels work until you get to 2.6.24 (all amd64). Same system used for all tests, same packages, just different kernels booted. HTH! -- Damon L.
