Hi, this is a function of the fact that reactivate is trying
to find out cluster info about your machine.
The easiest (and most useful) way to get around it is kind of hack-like,
but it makes things like lpq default to the right thing.
edit the file
/etc/namedb/named.local
(it should be an empty file right now)
add the line:
[machinename].cluster.ns.athena.mit.edu. 99999999 HS TXT "lpr [printer]"
(where [machinename] and [printername] are the names of your machine
and the default printer you want to use.. for example, my entry is:
i-see-everything-twice.cluster.ns.athena.mit.edu. 99999999 HS TXT "lpr jarthur"
