I see...so previous versions of Solaris could implement pathname resolution in such a way that trailing slashes are ignored in this manner. I've just found out that our developers even have it specified in their strcopy functions in their C utilities. E.g. they have shell commands with a trailing slash when doing redirect, e.g.:
Code:
strcpy(tmp, "rm -f bla.tmp 2> /dev/null/");
I actually can't find any other Linux/Unix system available to me at the moment that allows this sort of behaviour except our Solaris 9 machines...
Very very frustrating and going to mean a lot of sophisticated search and replace commands and recompiling for the guys to have this working. The annoying thing is that I know the proper thing to do is push them back on this however if only there was some way of hacking around this initially.

cups-driverd
cups-driverd(8) Apple Inc. cups-driverd(8)NAME
cups-driverd - cups driver daemon
SYNOPSIS
cups-driverd cat ppd-name
cups-driverd list request_id limit options
DESCRIPTION
cups-driverd shows or lists PPD files. It is run in response to CUPS-Add-Modify-Printer or CUPS-Get-Devices requests. The first form
("cups-driverd cat ppd-name") writes the named PPD file to stdout. The output format is an uncompressed PPD file.
The second form lists the available manufacturers or PPD files to stdout as indicated by the options argument. The output format is an IPP
response message. The request_id argument is the request ID from the original IPP request, typically 1. The limit argument is the limit
value from the original IPP request - 0 means no limit. Finally, the options argument is a space-delimited list of attributes ("name=value
name=value ...") that were passed in with the request. Currently cups-driverd looks for the ppd-make and requested-attributes attributes
and tailors the output accordingly.
DRIVERS
Drivers can be static PPD files under the /usr/share/cups/model directory or programs under the /usr/lib/cups/driver directory. Static PPD
files must conform to the Adobe PPD File Format Specification version 4.3 and may be compressed using the gzip(1) program. Driver programs
must implement the command-line interface shown in the next section.
DRIVER PROGRAMS
Driver programs provide an interface to dynamically-generated PPD files. The following arguments are currently defined:
drivername list
Lists the supported PPD files to stdout.
drivername cat ppdname
Writes the named PPD file to stdout.
LISTING FILES (drivername list)
When run with the single argument "list", the program must list the available PPD files it can generate to stdout using the following for-
mat:
"drivername:ppdname" language "make" "make and model" "1284 device id"
Drivername is the name of the driver program. Ppdname is the name used to select the given driver. Language is the locale associated with
the default language of the PPD file, typically "en". Make is the Manufacturer name from the PPD file. Make and model is the NickName name
from the PPD file. 1284 device id is the 1284DeviceId from the PPD file, if any.
WRITING FILES (drivername cat ppdname)
When the driver program is run with the "cat ppdname" arguments, it must write the named PPD file to stdout, uncompressed. If the named PPD
file does not exist, the driver program must not write any output to stdout and report the error to stderr instead.
DRIVER ERROR MESSAGES
Error messages can be relayed back to cupsd by writing them to stderr. The following prefixes are recognized:
DEBUG: [drivername]
Debugging messages
ERROR: [drivername]
Error messages
INFO: [drivername]
Informational messages
