Hello All:

Please excuse my made up fictitious names and IPs.

I have a printer that was setup such as  xxxt1
but in the hosts file on the HP system (11.0 HP-UX)
the printer name is   xxxlbl1

I setup the samba printer share with the name xxxlbl1

My question is will the samba printer share work with the name xxxt1 if the
name is aliases in the /etc/hosts file  such as

(fictitious IP) 181.22.14.43 xxxlbl1 xxxt1

Or how does the samba mechanism work when it gets a name
from the host server?  Is the hosts file the controlling factor?

Thanks for your help.
