Hi Managers,
here is my original posting:
I have a problem with a lpd which core dumps (segmentation violation),
if I want to print something on our printer 'rzlas-ps'.
The dbx output looks as follows
% dbx /usr/lib/lpd
warning: no symbols
program terminated by signal SEGV (no mapping at the fault address)
(dbx) list
warning: no current function.
(dbx) where

The syslogd didn't catch any error-messages. Even starting lpd with -L didn't
produce any output in the logfile.
The printcap-file is attached to this mail.
The Sun is an IPX with 4.1.3 and 32 MB.
------------
I received five responses and the ultimate solution from Badri Pillai was
to erase the empty lines in the printcap file, to remove all lock files and
to remove /dev/printer. The next step is to restart the lpd. After all it works fine.
Thanks to all who respond.
