I have a heterogeneous network here (there are a few Winder's machines in addition to a bunch of Unix machines) that has a bunch o' machines on it, all of which are listed in a local DNS server. What I'd really like to be able to do is just say: "Allow any machine from this local domain to connect to lpd." The documentation for hosts.lpd doesn't help out on format here, and the source code for lpd.c seems to confirm that there is, indeed, no wildcarding supported. Any other options? Thanks, mark...
