Hi all,

I experience some nasty problems when trying to print from my Linux
(RH5.0, netatalk 1.4b2 +asun2.1.0-5) to a network connected Apple LW
16/600 PS. When I try pap directly, everything works fine, but when I
use lpr nothing is printed and cf* and df* files are left in the spool
dir along with the lock file. There is no error message, in
/var/adm/messages everything looks fine (ofpap sends to pap), but the
whole process seems to stop somewhere.
Here is what I see with ps -auxw | grep ofpap. I think this shouldn't
happen.

bin 14521 0.0 0.7 876 340 ? T 18:46 0:00
/usr/lib/atalk/filters/ofpap -w132 -l66

Any suggestions ?

Thanks in advance,
Liviu
