An NT user could not LPR print until the rs capability was
removed from the printcap entry for the destination printer.
It appears that NT is supplying a UNIX user name that does
not match the user's actual one.

Where and how does one configure NT so that the user's
account name and the user's desktop machine's host name will
match the values in the passwd and hosts files on UNIX?
