- I've been trying to get print accounting going on our lab's SPARC ELC
- and I've been unable to get it working. I'm not even sure if the
- system will actually support print accounting but from all the subtle
- hints that I've found, it appears so.
-
- What I've done so far is put the following in the printcap for the
- printer in question:
-
- . . .
- :pc#1000:\
- :af=/var/spool/cclihp/accounting:\
- . . .
-
- which sets the cost per page/foot and the accounting file. I've even
- created the accounting files (just in case lpd wouldn't), and nothing
- has been written to them. Of course, pac reports nothing since the
- accounting files are empty.
-
- Any ideas?
