Hello,
Thank you very much for those who reply.
This is my previous question:
> Hello,
> I have a user in our network who uses pcnfs on his PC. We have a dedicated

> He claimed that when he does a command:

> he'd get errors: There is no printer named lp on server PRINTER_SERVER.

rpc.pcnfsd also required that a /var/spool/pcnfs directory created in the
printer server. As soon as I did this, it works!.

Thanks.
