Hi,
I am trying to get lpd going on my machine, so I can print my work and not just do it 
(paperless office .... nah)

<snip>
[root@xxx tex]# /sbin/service lpd restart
Stopping lpd:                                              [FAILED]
Starting lpd: 2002-05-20-10:43:49.385 Get_local_host: hostname 
'xxx.mech.canterbury.ac.nz' bad
                                                           [  OK  ]
[root@xxx tex]# /sbin/service lpd status
lpd dead but subsys locked
</snip>

now my machine gets its ip via dhcp, so putting an entry in /etc/hosts is not really 
an option (or is it?)  the entry for localhost is still there, what can I do?

Mark
