I'm running Xprint 0.9. When users try to print to Xprint printers from 
Mozilla, the console that started the daemon receives the following 
errors and nothing comes out of the printer:

AUDIT: Wed Apr 14 14:08:25 2004: 323 Xprt: client 1 connected from local 
host
AUDIT: Wed Apr 14 14:08:25 2004: 323 Xprt: client 1 disconnected
AUDIT: Wed Apr 14 14:08:30 2004: 323 Xprt: client 1 connected from local 
host
AUDIT: Wed Apr 14 14:08:30 2004: 323 Xprt: client 1 disconnected
AUDIT: Wed Apr 14 14:08:30 2004: 323 Xprt: client 1 connected from local 
host
lpr: unable to create temporary file.
AUDIT: Wed Apr 14 14:08:35 2004: 323 Xprt: client 1 disconnected

I verified that users have write privs for files in /var/spool and /tmp, 
and there was no change in behavior when set to world-writeable for 
either. Is there anything I'm missing that would enable the printing to 
work properly? If there is pertinent information that should be 
provided, please let me know what should be included.

Thank you,
