>A newly installed 4.1.3 system seems unable to use transcript.
>Whenever a user tries to print, the /var/spool/lw/lw-log
>fills up with "psbanner: cannot open .banner" messages
>(multitudes of them), and the jobs don't print. .banner
>exists in /usr/tran/sparc/lib, just like it does on my

Thanks to the following for replies:

Turns out the problem was incorrect ownership on the /var/spool
directories used by lpr; it should be "daemon".
