Decserver Question

[Marco Zelada]

Problem statement:

	I want to make a GPX station running Ultrix 3.0 use a PS printer that 
has been configured off of a decserver.

Configuration steps done so far:

	a) 	I have created the PRINTCAP entry for the new printer in which 
		I tell lpd the LAT device and LAT port on which the PS printer 
		is connected.

	b)	I created all needed directories under /usr/spool for the new
		printer queue area, accounting info, etc.

	c)	Now I need to make a node under /dev for the new printer, 
		however, I can not figure out how to create the node and give
		ultrix enough information about the LAT device and port number
		when I create the node. I have tried MAKEDEV and mknode, but I 
		always get an errors from them. Besides, I do not understand 
		where to include the LAT device address and port number if I am
		using these commands.

Question:

	What am I doing wrong ?

	Thank you in advance.
