Bug#507250: lprng depends on IPv4 address assigned (resolvable) to the local hostname
Package: lprng
Version: 3.8.A-1.1
Severity: normal
Hello,
after my LAN configuration has changed, (a DSL router works as DHCP server
and assigns IPv4 addresses), I have removed the following line from /etc/hosts:
192.168.1.1 ruetsch44.priv.net.de ruetsch44
Which assigned the old IPv4 address to the local hostname. But this entry is not
longer valid.
But there is still an valid IPv6 address to local hostname assignment:
2001:5c0:8d3a::1 ruetsch44.priv.net.de ruetsch44
So the local hostname is assigned to a valid IPv6 address.
But each call to lpq or lpr end with the following error message:
ruetsch44:/home/juergen# lpq
Get_local_host: hostname 'ruetsch44' bad
but querrying the DSL- router nameservice delivers the following:
ruetsch44:/home/juergen# host ruetsch44
ruetsch44 has address 192.168.178.22
Host ruetsch44 not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)
Host ruetsch44 not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)
Greetings
Juergen
