So far it doesn't seem to be going real well. Since these machines do not have real address I have configured them in /etc/hosts as 10.0.0.2 topdog and 10.0.0.3 saber. I am not sure if that is correct or not but I am just trying to get the two machines to talk together. I have tried adding a line for lp0 in /etc/sysconfig but that doesn't seem to work correctly either. Any help would really be appreciated.
