Files After Spooling</a></h1>
<p>The <tt class="COMMAND">lpr -r</tt> option is extremely
dangerous and has proven to be fatal to a large number of
system administrators, so it should be used with caution.
Unfortunately, it is used in a large number of shell scripts
and by default in a vast number of programs so it is present in
the <b class="APPLICATION">LPRng</b> software.</p>
<p>Its action is quite simple. After sending the print job to
the spooler, it will try to unlink the original files. It will
do the unlinking operation as the original user, but if the
original user had permissions to remove, say, <tt class=
"FILENAME">/etc/password</tt>, then the file will be
removed.</p>
