Re: Printing (Seg. fault)

[claudio@xxxxxxxxx (Claudio Succa)]

I had to give tn5250 the -P parameter:

tn5250 -p -P "scs2ascii | rpl -P lm615@S1" -slm651 as1

As per your case as1 is the nikname of my AS/400. lm615 is the name of the 
printer for Linux lpd as well as for AS/400 print session. 

Note that I had to modify printsession.c line 94 about 
(tn5250_print_session_main_loop):

   if (strcmp(responsecode, "I902" ))

in

  if ( !strcmp(responsecode, "I902" ))

In my case (tn5250-0.15.3), before the modification, the program exited 
with the message "Could not establish printer session".

I noted that the same line is present in 0.15.6 version so I guess that 
the program is ok. Can anyone explain me why in my case that modification 
was needed (OS is V4R3)?
