I killed it, and now it won't start again! I know I should have used the "/usr/sbinlpd stop" script, but I didn't know about it. Now, when attempting to start the thing using the same script, I get the message saying everything's hunky-dory, but there is no lpd to be found on the list of processes. Consequently, I can't print anything. I reconstructed /etc/printcap and thought I'd stop and start the print daemon to get the changes recognised.
Is there any reason for the daemon silently failing? Is there anywhere it would have logged this? I would prefer not to have to re-boot the machine (it's on a cluster and way too scary...)?
Thanks in advance...
