We have three printers (well, actually two printers and a plotter)
connected to a DN3500 running 10.2.0.5 . Spooling is done via lpd
and prf -- the Aegis hack :-( .

I've inserted a line in rc.user just before starting up the appropiate
prsvr which reads 
tctl -line 1 -sync -parity even -speed 19200
yet the lines are not set accordingly after the prsvr comes up. This is 
especially nasty with sync, as You can imagine.

Note that this setup has worked for a month or so, and these effects may
have to to with the pre10q -daemon I've enabled a week ago. But then, I'm
not so experienced with Aegis-internals ( These are the only occasions where
I wish I would :-( ).

Has anybody else had these effects before or could drop me clue as to where
my mistake might be, if any ?

					Thanx in advance

						Georg
