Previously reported problems no corrected:
X Window setup
Remote Printer Setup & Test
Networking (partial - see below)
New Problems:
A. Nameserver line from the dbox not parsed. Set to /etc/resolv.conf
as is, which is stupid:
1. The first line in /etc/resolv.conf should be "search <domain>".
This <domain> is not collected by the dbox.
2. Multiple nameservers should be parsed out and set to
/etc/resolv.conf one per line with a "nameserver " prefix.
B. /etc/hosts is not set up. This means that only IP numbers, not
names, may be used in the remote lp dbox.
1. The host names and their IPs for /etc/hosts should be collected
by a new dbox and set to /etc/hosts This must be done before remote
lp setup and testing.
C. Default route is not set up. For gateway machines a new dbox
should collect the interface for the default route and set it up.
For LAN machines the gateway address should be set as the default
route.
D. /etc/hosts.lpd is not set up on networked machines with a local
printer. A new dbox is necessary to collect this information.
