I am trying to use PC/TCP's lpr program to print to a Dynix/ptx 1.4
system with TCP/IP installed.  There is a demon, remotelp, which is
running on the Dynix/ptx system.  The log show a valid connection
but there seems to be an error.  I think the error occurs after the
PC/TCP program thinks everything should be done.
2 lines from /usr/spool/lp/logs/remotelp file:
remotelp (#, date, time): (host oscpc, queue laser)
 Unexpected EOF while getting data file
remotelp(daemon, date,time):child #, exit 1

I will summarize.

Directed to read about remotelp in Stevens' UNIX Network Programming.
Also directed to Dynix/ptx command tcpdump.
Expect to find PC/TCP software does not terminate job with NULL, may even
send FIN before final ack (don't expect since PC/TCP also sees "error").
Thanks iant@sequent.com (no name)

Mark Vasoll mentioned earlier problem with enabling network printer via menu.
This does not appear to be me problem but thanks.
