1789.0. "pcsaclass printer down" by BACHUS::ROETS (Chris Roets) Wed Mar 19 1997 14:03

    Hello Guys,
    
    We have the following situation on a 
    Pathworks version61. eco2, Digital Unix 4.0b :
    
    lpr and lpq on OSF queue works ok
    
    pathworks printers get stuck
    lpq -Pname where name is the printcap entry associated with
    if=pcsaclass give "All Class [printers are down, waiting x minutes to
    retry".
    
    Customer needs to lpc restart or sometimes even /sbin/init.d/lpd
    restart to get them working again.
    
    anyone any idea ?

    Feedback,
    this problem occurs on a PW5.0F server configured as BDC.
    This problem happens when there are browsing problems on the PDC due to
    not enough resources on the PDC.
    
    workarount was: net accounts /sync on the PDC to reset this temporary.
