fixes:
a) the configured default printer entry might turn out to become a security hole Although lpd isn't enabled by default in FreeBSD 4 and later versions bad things might happen because of a simple copy and paste failure: - fill up root-fs, if /dev/lpt0 doesn't exist - fill up the spool dir (either root-fs or var-fs) if machine hadn't been designed as print server Therefore best decision: if people want printing, then configure both 1. /etc/rc.conf 2. /etc/printcap the default entry wouldn't have served well all tastes and needs anyway... design of most of our config files is, to have commented out suggestions if a service is not active. b) [Garance] fix old and wrong documentation: input filters are possible even if you print to a remote printer this makes FreeBSDs implementation of lpd currently the best without having to switch to port monster LPRng ... c) fix pointer to wrong handbook section for a longer time .. so I doesn't fix the number I'm only referring to the printing section, otherwise this would have to be fixed several times, if the chapters should be reordered again ... d) typo: chose -> choose Submitted by: me and some suggestions by Garance Approved by: Eivind and Garance A Drosihn <drosih@rpi.edu> in private e-mail
