Hi.   I subscribe to the digest flavor of questions.  Please CC me on 
any repliees.

I'm trying to set up remote printing for the first time.
These are both FreeBSD 5.1-CURRENT machines.

I have an HP2000 USB connected to the "remote" host.  It is lp on P3R-272.
I'm using apsfilter on P3R-272 as the print filter.  I am able to print 
to the printer when I'm on that machine.
The printer is called lp and this is what apsfilter setup created:
lp|PS;r=1200x1200;q=photo;c=full;p=letter;m=auto:\
     :lp=/dev/ulpt0:\
     :if=/usr/local/etc/apsfilter/basedir/bin/apsfilter:\
     :sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp:\
     :lf=/var/spool/lpd/lp/log:\
     :af=/var/spool/lpd/lp/acct:\
     :mx#0:\
     :tr=\004:\
     :sh:

I'm trying to configure printing on the "local" machine (Stargate) to 
point to lp on P3R-272.  I have NO printer directly connected to Stargate.
I've looked at the printcap sample remote printer and the man page. 
I've tried a number of different combinations and I cannot convince lpd 
on Stargate that lp is a remote printer.  It keeps looking for /dev/lp.

This is what I currently have coded in Stargate's printcap file:
lp|HP2000 on P3R-272:\
         :sh:\
         :sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp:lf=/var/log/lpd-errs:\
         :rm=P3R-272.Tom.Parquette.name:

The error messages I'm getting are:
Oct 15 14:01:41 Stargate lpd[1015]: unable to get official name for 
local machine Stargate.Tom.Parquette.name: No address associated with 
hostname
Oct 15 14:01:41 Stargate lpd[1015]: /dev/lp: No such file or directory
Oct 15 14:01:41 Stargate kernel: Oct 15 14:01:41 Stargate lpd[1015]: 
/dev/lp: No such file or directory

The official name message is explainable.  I use DDNS, I had to boot the 
DHCP/DNS server today.  If I shutdown Stargate for a few hours, 
everything will disappear from the leases file and the name will resolve 
again.
The second and third error messages are the ones I cannot find an answer to.

TIA for any help.
Cheers...
