Hello everybody, When I try to print something using lprng I get:
Sending job '[EMAIL PROTECTED] +689 to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cannot open connection to localhost - No such file or directory. Here's /etc/conf.d/hostname: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ cat /etc/conf.d/hostname # /etc/conf.d/hostname # $Header: /var/cvsroot/gentoo-src/rc-scripts/etc/conf.d/hostname,v 1.2.4.1 2005/02/19 02:13:53 vapier Exp $ # Set to the hostname of this machine HOSTNAME="sarawak" /etc/hosts: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ cat /etc/hosts # /etc/hosts: This file describes a number of hostname-to-address # mappings for the TCP/IP subsystem. It is mostly # used at boot time, when no name servers are running. # On small systems, this file can be used instead of a # "named" name server. Just add the names, addresses # and any aliases to this file... # $Header: /var/cvsroot/gentoo-src/rc-scripts/etc/hosts,v 1.8 2003/08/04 20:12:25 azarah Exp $ # 127.0.0.1 localhost sarawak # IPV6 versions of localhost and co ::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback fe00::0 ip6-localnet ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix ff02::1 ip6-allnodes ff02::2 ip6-allrouters ff02::3 ip6-allhosts I've tried editing the above different ways with the similar results: Get_local_host: hostname 'sarawak' bad or Get_local_host: 'localhost' IP address not available Yes, the appropriate modules are loaded and the printer is found at bootup. WinXP has no trouble with the printer, an HP Deskjet612. Attempts to cat a file directly to /dev/lp0 cause the printer to make some noise and to flash the trouble light. This line is probably wrong, can someone suggest the correct one? 127.0.0.1 localhost sarawak cups doesn't work either; the error is 'exit with status 3' -mw __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
