yes.. you can get rid of the hesiod thing rather easily..
create (or just add to) the file
	/etc/namedb/named.local

the following line:
livewire.cluster.ns.athena.mit.edu. 99999999 HS TXT "lpr ajax"

that line makes
hesinfo livewire cluster
five the info the machine is expecting to get (change ajax to whatever
printer you want). Hacking DNS is NOT fun...  :-)




as for the other problem.. I'm not really sure. Make sure you
don't have a file named /etc/group.local, and also make sure
that wheel is the first listed group in the group file.
I think it should accept it for su..
	(it does here, and I go over the 16 group limit)
