in.lpd(1M) System Administration Commands in.lpd(1M) NAME in.lpd - BSD print protocol adaptor SYNOPSIS /usr/lib/print/in.lpd DESCRIPTION in.lpd implements the network listening service for the BSD print pro- tocol specified in RFC 1179. The BSD print protocol provides a remote interface for systems to interact with a local spooling system. The protocol defines five standard requests from the client to the server: starting queue processing, transfering print jobs, retrieving terse status, retrieving verbose status, and canceling print jobs. in.lpd is started from inetd (see inetd(1M)). inetd waits for connec- tions on TCP port 515. Upon receipt of a connect request, in.lpd is started to service the connection. Once the request has been filled, in.lpd closes the connection and exits. EXIT STATUS The following exit values are returned: 0 Successful completion. non-zero An error occurred.
