Is it a permissions issue? IIRC, I had an issue with permissions
the first time I set up apsfilter.
Here are my permissions on /var/spool and friends:
# ll /var/spool | grep lpd && ll /var/spool/lpd && ll /var/spool/lpd/lp
drwxr-xr-x 5 root daemon 512 Mar 22 2004 lpd/
total 1
drwxr-xr-x 2 root daemon 512 Mar 2 20:55 lp/
total 41
-rw-r----- 1 root daemon 84 Apr 8 2004 .railmag
-rw-r----x 1 root daemon 4 Mar 2 20:55 .seq*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root daemon 0 Mar 21 2004 acct
-rw-r--r-- 1 root daemon 33 Mar 2 20:55 lock
-rw-r--r-- 1 root daemon 42235080 Mar 2 20:55 log
-rw-r--r-- 1 root daemon 25 Mar 2 20:55 status
HTH,
