i haven't audited anything in some time.  well, i
just noticed this because i am doing a project
with a name similar to "netprint" and i was
wondering if it was at all related to what i was
doing.  it wasn't.  but, i noticed it was setuid
root and had a little bug.

this bug takes advantage of the -n option witch
has a bug that allows for arbitrary commands to be
executed.
