Hi Garance.
Thanks for your answer, I had tried with the IP only and
the name only in the /etc/hosts.lpd and the problem persist,
but when I add the entry in /etc/hosts the printings go fine
no matter what I had in /etc/hosts.lpd (the name or the IP),
so I can assure you that the problem is because LPD don't
resolve the IP to a name via DNS.
>From windows I resolve the IP to as_nte.intranet.telmex.com
C:\>ping -a -n 1 10.192.2.134
Haciendo ping a as_nte.intranet.telmex.com [10.192.2.134] con 32 bytes =
de datos:
Respuesta desde 10.192.2.134: bytes=3D32 tiempo=3D48ms TDV=3D58
Estad=EDsticas de ping para 10.192.2.134:
Paquetes: enviados =3D 4, Recibidos =3D 4, perdidos =3D 0 (0% loss),
Tiempos aproximados de recorrido redondo en milisegundos:
m=EDnimo =3D 37ms, m=E1ximo =3D 48ms, promedio =3D 40ms
I think that the solution to my dilemma, is modify the source
code of LPD.
But before this I like to try the "netgroup" option, where can
I begging to read?.

You should only need the real hostname in /etc/hosts.lpd.
You do not need to list the real IP address in addition
to the hostname.
To get the mapping between hosts and IP addresses to work,
you would have to put an entry in /etc/hosts:
10.192.2.134 as_nte.intranet.telmex.com
and then put just the line:
as_nte.intranet.telmex.com
in /etc/hosts.lpd

I saw your earlier question on this, and I believe the answer
is that there isn't any good way to do this. You might be
able to set something up with a netgroup, although that is
not documented very well.
