System name: super-colon-blow.mit.edu
Type and version: i586 8.4.4
Display type: XFree86 3.3.6 GLINT
Shell: /bin/athena/tcsh (/bin/bash?)
Window manager: /usr/X11R6/bin/twm
What were you trying to do?
I was using /etc/athena/cluster.local to set the cluster printer.
What's wrong:
getcluster sticks semicolons in /var/athena/clusterinfo. The system-wide
cshrc puts the semicolon into the PRINTER env. variable. lpr/lpq/etc.
have been breaking on this.
What should have happened:
Instead of
bash# lpq
Printer 'rick;@localhost' - cannot open connection - Connection refused
something like
bash# lpq
no entries
I guess.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
Dunno. getcluster source?
