It looks like your host name is "buddy". You need to add a line to your /etc/resolv.conf file to the effect of:
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx buddy buddy.yourhost.name where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the IP address assigned to your computer (not 127.0.0.1) and yourhost.name is the rest of the hostname you have. If your computer is simply named buddy then don't worry about the second name. - Matt ----- Original Message ----- From: "David McGlone" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "RH-List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, June 10, 2002 7:41 PM Subject: printer failing > Hi all, > > When I try to print I get an error message that says: > > A print error occurred.
