I checked these settings in CFGTCP and all appears to be fine.  The
problem still seems to be occurring, though.  Each time I get the same
type of joblog below.  Not that it should matter but both are Lexmark
Optra (model N and model S) printers and I have them setup as RMT
printers currently.  After checking supported printers on IBM site, it
appears these printers could be setup as a *LAN type printer (says they
support PJL) but which system driver should I use (*HPPJLDRV?).  Anyone
out there have these printers setup currently?

It sounds like somethings wrong with either the domain setup on the
server, or it's not resolving it's host name correctly to an IP address.
Check to see that you have an entry in your local host table that
specifies the IP address assigned to MARINE (if DNS is involved, verify
that piece is correct also).  You can check the items by doing what's
suggested in the message detail below (CFGTCP Opt 12 and Opt 10).

I've seen a similar issue where SMTP startup would fail intermittently
during STRTCP because the server didn't have a listing for itself in the
local host table.  It was starting SMTP before DNS was up and failing to
resolve its own name.

I've got an oddity I just can't figure out.  We've got lots of printers
(LAN and RMT flavors) of various types and models.  For quite awhile
now, I have found 2 printers that just plain stop for no apparent
reason.  They are totally different types of printers as well.  Each
time they produce a joblog which show things working just fine up until
I get the message in the log below.  Each time, we just fire the writer
back up and things print just fine.  Sometimes it goes days without
stopping, sometimes a few times PER day.  I'm convinced connectivity is
being interrupted to the printers somehow but I can't see how.  Can
anyone shed some more light on this error message?  Thanks in advance.
