TCPIP Print Server

[Juergen Striegel]

I want to add the Unix print service daemon to my XPEmbedded (so Unix
clients are able to print to local printers connected to my device).
I added the "print services for Unix" that seems to provide all
necessary files for that job.
Under XP Professional a service "TCP/IP print server" comes up after
installing the unix print service component.
In my XPEmbedded no service is started or installed.
Port 515 (I guess) is also _not_ opened to receive print jobs from unix
clients...

What can I do to make this thing work? Thanks.

No answer? Does only I have this problem or is there no solution?
I run a little bit deeper into this problem. It seems that there are
missing some registry keys to make the service working. I added them
successfully (some eventlog-, legacy- and service entries for LPDSVC;
extracted from a running german XPProfessional)

@MS: perhaps this is worth to be fixed.

....and the file "netlpd.inf" (don't know if it's really necessary).
