Hi folks,

Here is the first set of things I've found broken in the Sun 7.7 release:

1. /usr/lib/sendmail should be suid root

2. lpr and lpq don't work at all.  lpr keeps returning errors like

	lpr: hp-test: unknown printer

   lpq says

	UX:lpq: ERROR: Can't establish contact with the LP print service.
	       TO FIX: Either the LP print service has stopped,
               or all message channels are busy. If the
               problem continues, get help from your
               system administrator.

4. (minor)  The "f" alias doesn't exist

5. The Alt key doesn't send an escape any more.  

6. The console isn't listening to signals.  (I think you already know
this)

7. When I initially logged in, zephyr couldn't locate me.  I had to do a
   zctl unhide before it could.  More info as I get it.

8. aklog seems slow, but that's just a feeling

That's all,

		Dot
