Re: sets a timeout period for a print queue

sets a timeout period for a print queue

Hi,

on AIX you can find in the print queue definition the instruction /usr/lib/lpd/rembak -T60.
rembak sends a print job to a queue on a remote server and -T Timeout sets a timeout period, in minutes, for rembak to wait for
acknowledgements from the remote server.
On HP-UX 11.11 i cannot find a possibility to set timeout period for the print queue.
Is there a possibility?

Thanks

Re: sets a timeout period for a print queue

There is no very simlar equivalent in hp-ux. You want to put lp command wrapper. When you do this, you will have to think aboout the pacthes that patch lp. They would be rendering the the script useless as they would be writing lp again.
