Hi!

----
I started to add NetBSD to the Xprint project (see
http://xprint.mozdev.org/) today (see
http://xprint.mozdev.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=5038 ("RFE: Add support
for NetBSD")). The Xprint server and the utilites seem to work - but
there are two problems left which go beyond my knowledge about NetBSD:
1. I have no clue where the  "xprint" init script (located at
xc/programs/Xserver/Xprint/etc/init.d/xprint in CVS) should be placed in
the NetBSD file hieracy... does anyone have a clue how the NetBSD
startup system works ?
2. How does NetBSD handle the distribution of env variables ? Xprint
needs the env variable XPSERVERLIST set that clients can locate the
server (or servers).
On Linux there are /etc/profile.d/xprint.sh (for sh/ksh/bash) and
/etc/profile.d/xprint.csh (for csh&co.) - but how does NetBSD handle
that case ?
Can anyone investigate the issue and comment in
http://xprint.mozdev.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=5038 , please ? Thanks! :)

Bye,
Roland
