# ncpprint script with slight modifications for Turboprint (name changes)
# This script is an input filter for printcap printing on a unix machine. It
# uses the nprint program to print the file to the specified ncp-based
# server and queue.
# For example you could have a printcap entry like this
#
# ncp:lp=/dev/null:sd=/usr/spool/ncp:sh:if=/usr/local/bin/ncpprint
#
# which would create a unix printer called "ncp" that will print via this
# script. You will need to create the spool directory /usr/spool/ncp with
# appropriate permissions and ownerships for your system.
#
# Script further altered by hamiltom@ecnz.co.nz (Michael Hamilton)
# so that the server, service, and password can be read from
# a /usr/var/spool/lpd/PRINTNAME/.config file.
#
# In order for this to work the /etc/printcap entry must include an
# accounting file (af=...):
#
# cdcolour:\
# :cm=CD IBM Colorjet on 6th:\
# :sd=/var/spool/lpd/cdcolour:\
# :af=/var/spool/lpd/cdcolour/acct:\
# :if=/usr/local/etc/ncpprint:\
# :mx=0:\
# :lp=/dev/null:
#
# The /usr/var/spool/lpd/PRINTNAME/.config file should contain:
# server=PC_SERVER
# queue=PRINTER_QUEUE
# user="user"
# password="password"
#
# Please, do not modify the order in the file.
# Example:
# server=NWSERVER
# queue=P_QUEUE1
# user="fred"
# password=""
#
# The first parameter to the filter is config file name.
#
CONFIG_FILE=$1
# Should read the following variables set in the config file:
# REMOTESERVER
# REMOTEPRINTER
# REMOTEUSER
# REMOTEPASSWORD
eval $(cat $CONFIG_FILE)
if [ "$REMOTEUSER" != "" ]; then
if [ "$REMOTEPASSWORD" != "" ]; then
USERCMD="-U $REMOTEUSER -P $REMOTEPASSWORD"

USERCMD="-U $REMOTEUSER -n"
