❖ Adding the IP address and host name to the /etc/hosts file
The following line is added to the /etc/hosts file. The IP address and printer
host name previously entered in the installation script will be used:
192.168.15.16 np # Network Printer
•“192.168.15.16” is the IP address. “np” is the host name. The comment
comes after the #.
Note
❒ The /etc/hosts file contains a list of IP addresses and names of all 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 enter the IP address and host name
of each workstation using the network printer in the /etc/hosts file.
