Go to decix, and add your host to it's "/etc/hosts.lpd" file, then issue a kill -2 to the process id of the lpd daemon on that system. Then go back to your system and start up the queue: qadm -U rlp2 Alternatively, to get rid of the file in the queue (it is queued on your machine, not the remote machine, since the remote machine is not even talking to you), use the command: qcan -x 1 Where "1" is the job number as listed in your "output of lpq" insert.
