I'm trying to use a 3/50, SunOS 4.1 as a print server for a bunch of Apple
Laserwriters using the Rutgers flavor of the CAP software.

Every time a print job completes I get another <defunct> process.  For
some reason the master lpd is not picking up its dead children.  Anybody
know what might be going on here?
