I am cross-posting this as printing broke around the time I first ran harden_suse. I can't see permissions or ownerships the harden script could have done which hurt apsfilter (maybe something in /etc/passwd ??), but perhaps wiser minds can direct me towards my error. ("rpm --verify" doesn't suggest anything wrong either) dproc ----------- I can't print anything, because my apsfilter script (Version: S.u.S.E.-1.6) starts choking as soon as it starts. It reports a stream of errors as soon as it is called by the lpd. The first error in its log is always head: command not found (This is the first time a binary is called by the bash script /var/lib/apsfilter .) Errors continue until the filter hands an error code back to lpd without printing anything. Any clues? dproc
