Subject: PPR: missing ppr.conf?

Hi Folks,

I am new to PPR, but I've compiled and installed version 1.44 on a 
Solaris8 box.  I've tried to add a printer through the web interface as 
well as through the ppad command line.  However, when I try to submit a 
job to the printer I get the following error message:

+++
# ls -l /usr/bin | ./ppr -d los1650
filter_lp: value is not in the correct format
        while attempting to read "/etc/ppr/ppr.conf"
                [internationalization]
                defaultmedium =
Your new print job for "los1650" has been rejected by PPR because of a
fatal error: filter failed, exit code = 1.
+++

This is where I am stuck.  I can't find any reference to what the ppr.conf 
file is supposed to look like or how it is supposed to be 
generated/created.

The only vague reference I have found is in the pprdoc-12.html in the 
Media Handling chapter.

Can somebody point me to where I can find more info on the ppr.conf file?

Francisco
