Possible Causes

• You used the System Management Interface Tool (SMIT) to remove a remote host name, but the /etc/hosts.lpd file could not be opened.

Procedures for Recovery

• Ensure that the /etc/hosts.lpd file exists and that you have write permission in both the file and in the /etc directory.
  1. Using the cd command, ensure that the /etc directory exists.
  2. Using the ls -l command, ensure that you have write permission to the /etc directory.
  3. Use the ls -l command to ensure that the /etc/hosts.lpd file exists, that it is a file and not a directory, and that you have write permission on this file.
  4. Ensure that you are logged in as the root user or have the appropriate write permissions. Use the su command to change users if necessary.
  5. Use SMIT or the ruser command to remove a remote host name.
