I just read the latest RCB list. Well, I can't reproduce this remote printing problem. I've tried it both with conventional remote printing as well as printing to an HP JetDirect printer, and it works for me. However, it does seem to break netatalk printing, and there's a report that it doesn't work with samba. I'm very busy with school and money-making work at the moment, so I don't have time to extensively debug it. So I'd ask for someone to help me out with this. In the long run, I hope to be able to bring lpr up to snuff, but right now, I don't have the time. (as for the security bug, fixes have been uploaded for potato and slink, and I'll close the bug as soon as they're installed) Adam
