HPDPS message, if you are using HP distributed printing service.
Are you using it? If not reconfigure the printer using
normal lp scheduler.

Looks like Name resolution/ TCP problem.

See whether lanscan & ifconfig outputs are OK.
resolve your host name using nslookup.

TT

You have a network setup error on your computer. If you type:

nslookup

it will likely fail, probably because your DNS server(s) don't know this host or the servers are unreachable. Rename the /etc/resolv.conf file, then make sure the IP address in /etc/hosts is correct for your hostname. Also checlk the file /etc/rc.config.d/netconf to see that the hostname and IP are setup correctly. You mak also have a routing problem because of the second card. Use netstat -rn to look at the default route. This is also located in the netconf file mentioned previously.
