spooling problem

I have a two problems that I wish someone could give me a pointer on.

We are running Arc/Info 6.1.2 on an 3000/300LX and there is a license
manager that we would like to have start at boot-time please see included
section below:


#
# The following sequence of commands can be used to automatically
# start the license manager at boot up time. The code should be
# inserted in the /sbin/rc3 file of the node that will be running
# the license manager.
#
# stuff deleted!! - it was commented out!
#
ARCHOME=/install_directory/arcexe61; export ARCHOME
if [ -f $ARCHOME/sysgen/lmgrd ]; then
   $ARCHOME/sysgen/lmgrd -c $ARCHOME/sysgen/license.dat > /dev/null &
   (echo 'License Manager for ARC/INFO has been started') > /dev/console
fi
#
# End of License Manager for running ARC/INFO
#

The problem is that the echoed message appears on the screen but when
users can log in they receive a message telling them that the license
manager is not started. With ps -e there is no record of the manager.



The second problem is one with a printer. I have read the online manual
but seem to be getting nowhere. The printer is an LN03 and we are trying
to get it to work as a LAT device:

# PILZP2 - LN03 Printer - Room 201
pilzp2|lp2|pilzp2:\
        :af=/usr/adm/lp2acct:\
        :br#19200:\
        :ct=LAT:\
        :fc#0177777:\
        :fs#03:\
        :if=/usr/lbin/ln03of:\
        :lf=/usr/adm/lp2err:\
        :lp=/dev/tty0b:\
        :mx#0:\
        :of=/usr/lbin/ln03of:\
        :pl#66:\
        :pw#80:\
        :rw:\
        :sd=/usr/spool/pilzp2:\
        :xc#0177777:\
        :xf=/usr/lbin/xf:\
        :xs#044000:


The spooling directory exists along with the proper permissions, but
the print job never happens.

The LAT ports do exist.


Local Port Name = tty0A <application>

        Specified Remote Node Name = SERVR3
        Specified Remote Port Name = PORT_7

Local Port Name = tty0B <application>

        Specified Remote Node Name = SERVR3
        Specified Remote Port Name = PORT_1



Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
