- Did you install patch 100305-07? Run this script and keep it around
- whenever you install a new machine.
-
- #!/bin/sh
- # this is because of patch 100305-07
- #Copy in the new versions, delete /dev/printer and create a
- #directory mode 750 owned by root, with group daemon, called /dev/lpd;
- #then create a symbolic link called /dev/printer that points to
- #/dev/lpd/printer and restart lpd.
-
- kill `cat /var/spool/lpd.lock`
- rm -f /dev/printer
- mkdir /dev/lpd
- chown root.daemon /dev/lpd
- chmod 710 /dev/lpd
- ln -s /dev/lpd/printer /dev/printer
-
- rm -f /var/spool/lpd.lock
