Listing 3: install_lpd, replacing the System V spooler system with the SunOS 4.1.2 BSD spooler under Solaris 2.3

#!/bin/sh
#
# Example 3 (install_lpd), John Lees
#
# Under Solaris 2.3 replace the System V spooler
# system with the SunOS 4.1.2 BSD spooler system.
#
#--- Make the spool directories.
# Yours will of course have different names. You
# also need an appropriate /etc/printcap file with
# entries for these printers.
#
cd /usr/spool
for DIR in "lw1 lw2 lw3 tekPXi"
do
mkdir $DIR
chmod 775 $DIR
chown daemon $DIR
chgrp daemon $DIR
done
#
#--- Disable the System V spooler stuff.
# You need do this only if you installed the
# spooler when you installed Solaris.
