Has anyone had difficulties getting the accounting to work
with the line printer daemon under OSx 3.1?  The printing function
works fine, but the accounting file never seems to grow.  I have a 98x, 
with an IOP based parallel printer, with all printing functions executing
under the UCB universe.  Again, everything else with the printer seems to work. 
Here are some files of interest:

/etc/printcap:

lpr|lp|lp0|Band Printer:\
        :lp=/dev/lp:\
        :of=/usr/lib/lpf:\
        :sd=/usr/spool/lp:\
        :af=/usr/adm/lp.acct:\
        :lf=/usr/adm/lp-errs:

Permissions on various relevant files:

-rw-rw-r--  1 daemon   daemon          0 Jan 11  1986 /usr/adm/lp-errs
-rw-rw-r--  1 daemon   daemon          0 Feb 19 17:31 /usr/adm/lp.acct

-rwxr-xr-x  1 bin      sys         18432 Jan 10  1986 /usr/lib/lpf*

Here is my kernel configuration (strings /vmunix)
|       # makesys configuration for 128 user system
|       users=128
|       logins=64
|       multiprocessor

|       gpsc x25if
|       itp sxt
|       iocload

Any help/pointers/suggestions are welcomed.
