HPUX 11.0: lp print spool

[LG Porter]

I have a rp7400 running HPUX 11.0. I have setup a print queue on it called (ex) np2105 to receive data from a AS400. The print requests are being received in /var/spool/lp/np2105/requests. When the print jobs are received, the lp create permissions as r--r-----. Is there a command or method to automatically define the permissions as 755 when they are created by lp daemon?

Can't see any way of getting rlpdaemon to do this.

Why do you want to set print data files as executable though? 444 or 666 I could just about understand but 755 no.

Regards,
John

You could try setting your umask up in /sbin/init.d/lp - the spooler startup script called from startup - and stop and start the spooler -

Let me know if it works
