hi
you remember that u asked me to check if telnet worls with localhost
i.e # telnet localhost it gave n error
Unknown host
so i went to /etc/hosts file to check again & found that there was no entry for
localhost, so made the entry for it
i.e
# joe /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
saved it & exit
then i restarted the network daemon & ran the
#telnet localhost & it worked
then i restarted the lpd daemon it failed again,
again i restarted the lpd daemon for the 2nd time, & it was started without any error.
then i ran the printing command
# lpr test & it got printed properly.
regards
Dipankar

hi dipankar,
1st thing there are no sirs here so take it easy :) and on the
otherhand I am a bit confused. Can you please summarize the excercise. For
instance I remember you saying that the host entries where there in
/etc/hosts....you see the confusion
