Could someone please defend or refute the following statement:

In Ultrix 3.0 the line printer daemon does not allow the use of
netgroups in hosts.equiv to specify the access control on a printer.

I have not be able to make this work... although the yp escape
sequence does the right thing for all other functions. (ie rlogin)

Anybody have any comments?

Thanks
Guy
