Amen to that. Would it be that difficult for CUPS to provide
backwards compatibility? The old lpd system is pretty simple,
after all. It would be nice if one could install a new CUPS-using
distribution, hand it an old working lpd configuration, and have
it "just work" (Hey, maybe it can already, I don't know, I'm just
asking).
