Bug#509965: lprng: Remote printing doesn't work

[David Raymond <raymond@kestrel.nmt.edu>]

Package: lprng
Version: 3.8.A-1.1
Severity: important

After upgrading this system to amd64 lenny, I find that lprng
will not accept printing requests from other computers even though
I have modified the lpd.perms file to enable this.  Local printing
works fine.  I find that the same problem exists on another lenny
upgrade using i386 architecture.  It doesn't matter whether the
originating machine is running lenny or etch.

Here is a typical result when trying to check the queue:

merlin:~$ lpq -P upstairs
Printer: upstairs@merlin (dest upstairs@gryphon)
 Queue: 1 printable job
 Server: pid 22815 active
 Unspooler: pid 22816 active

Printer 'upstairs@gryphon' - cannot open connection - Connection refused

Here is the printcap file on gryphon:

# This file was generated by /usr/sbin/magicfilterconfig.

	:lp=/dev/usb/lp0:sd=/var/spool/lpd/upstairs:\

	:ifhp=model=hp2200:\
	:filter=/usr/lib/ifhp/ifhp:\
	:mc#50
... (other remote printers omitted)

Am I missing something obvious?  I didn't select "print server" on
the task select when installing etch prior to upgrading to lenny.
However, this has never been an issue on etch.
