I am setting up my new N-class system.  Trying to print to my existing
printers.

Have set up the NPCONFIG file, used the same HOSTS.NET file setup, along
with SERVICES.net and INETDCNF.net.  I was not using BOOTPTAB and INETDSEC
on the old machine.

Added the printers to the system using IOCONFIG.  REbooted the machine.
(more than once).

If my printer is defined as an IP address in NPCONFIG, I can print to it, If
it uses an 'alis' name, ie something like IILJC1.nws.com, I get the
following error:

:10:09/56/Output spooler, LDEV #121:  Domain name resolver return status
nodename is unknown (HOST_NOT_FOUND).  Printer nodename lookup failed.
Native Mode Spooler message 9665

10:09/55/Output spooler, LDEV #120:  Domain name resolver return status

Check network xport config, NPCONFIG.PUB.SYS, xport and links started

intermediate network, and printer status.

Any advice will be helpful and GREATLY appreciated.
