debs, as of last friday, i suddenly lost the ability to lpr and pon. everything else is fine. i can still boot, get into x, run wp8... running potato on customized 2.2.16, i get this error message if i lpr [file]: "lpr: connect: connection refused jobs queued, but cannot start daemon." with pon [isp1], i get no dialout. (...will send the ppp.log if needed). ...suggestions? ia, t. bentley taylor. // -- >> Bentley Taylor << ______________ pplaw@pcisys.net
