8 in.lpd \- BSD print protocol adaptor
12 \fB/usr/lib/print/in.lpd\fR
18 \fBin.lpd\fR implements the network listening service for the \fBBSD\fR print
19 protocol specified in \fBRFC\fR 1179. The \fBBSD\fR print protocol provides a
20 remote interface for systems to interact with a local spooling system. The
21 protocol defines five standard requests from the client to the server: starting
22 queue processing, transferring print jobs, retrieving terse status, retrieving
23 verbose status, and canceling print jobs.
26 The \fBin.lpd\fR service is managed by the service management facility,
27 \fBsmf\fR(5), under the service identifier:
38 Administrative actions on this service, such as enabling, disabling, or
39 requesting restart, can be performed using \fBsvcadm\fR(1M). Responsibility for
40 initiating and restarting this service is delegated to \fBinetd\fR(1M). Use
41 \fBinetadm\fR(1M) to make configuration changes and to view configuration
42 information for this service. The service's status can be queried using the
43 \fBsvcs\fR(1) command.
46 \fBin.lpd\fR uses the \fBconfig/log_from_remote\fR property to allow or
47 disallow remote access. The default value of this property, \fBlocalhost\fR,
48 disallows remote access.
51 \fBinetd\fR waits for connections on \fBTCP\fR port 515. Upon receipt of a
52 connect request, \fBin.lpd\fR is started to service the connection. Once the
53 request has been filled, \fBin.lpd\fR closes the connection and exits.
56 \fBExample 1 \fRAllowing Remote Access
59 The following command allows remote access to \fBin.lpd\fR.
64 # \fBinetadm -m svc:/application/print/rfc1179:default bind_addr=""\fR
72 The following exit values are returned:
79 Successful completion.
