As a result by using the -s flag it could be tricked into printing files a user can otherwise not read This has been fixed in version 0.46-1-0slink1. We recommend you upgrade your lpr package immediately. wget url will fetch the file for you dpkg -i file.deb will install the referenced file. Debian GNU/Linux 2.1 alias slink - -------------------------------- This version of Debian was released only for Intel, the Motorola 680x0, the alpha and the Sun sparc architecture.
