All,
I just recently started having a problem with a printer queue on one of my
AIX 4.3.3 servers.
This queue uses a custom backend to convert a postscript file sent from a
remote server into a PDF file on the AIX server.
All was working well until just recently. I'm pretty sure I know what
caused the problem, but I'm not sure how to fix it (or how to tell the
responsible people how to fix it).
The AIX server sets in a DMZ. The remote file comes from a server on the
other side of a firewall. The printer stopped working just after the
Telecom folks upgraded the firewall software.
I stopped lpd on the AIX server and restarted it with the "-D debug_file"
option. Every minute the remote server tries to send a print job to the AIX
box which generate the following three lines in the debug file:
lpd[46432] main: child process starts.....
lpd[46432] main: Terminate: 0781-201 ill-formed FROM address.
lpd[46432] main: Mon Dec 1 13:00:40 2003
My questions are 1) how can I find more information on the "0781-201"
error? and 2) what does "ill-formed FROM address" mean?
TIA
