Making the log file
Error messages are logged to a file created in the /var/log directory. The log
file name is the printer name followed by “d-errs”.
Note
❒
The log file is used for logging some errors or warning messages by the
UNIX workstation.
❒
The log file should be made for every network printer entry listed in the
/etc/printcap file.
❒
The log file should normally be made under /var/log directory and the
name should match that listed under the lf capability in /etc/printcap.
Change the owner and group of the log file to root and lp. The following
examples show how to make a /var/log/npd-errs file.
# cd /var/log
# touch npd-errs
# chown root npd-errs
# chgrp lp npd-errs

Adding the IP address and host name to the /etc/hosts file
The following line is added to the /etc/hosts file.
192.168.15.16 nphost # Network Printer
•
192.168.15.16
is the IP address,
nphost
is the host name, from # to the end
of the line is a comment.
Note
❒
The /etc/hosts file contains a list of the IP addresses and their host names
of all of the hosts communicating on the network. Each entry is delimited
with a space or a tab, and each line is separated with a return.
❒
If you do not use NIS or DNS, you must manually enter the IP address and
host name of each workstation using the network printer in the /etc/hosts file.
