	In trying to work through this, I found that the daemon fails to start
if I use a fully-articulated Internet address, e.g., mumble.wesleyan.edu, as
hostname and either the full or partial (e.g., "mumble") in file servername. 
If I use the partial name "mumble" as hostname and as servername, printing is
successful.  Unfortunately I need the fully-articulated name as hostname to
support sendmail.

	I must have done something stupid when I set up the system six months
ago and set up some other configuration parameter to expect just "mumble" -- 
but I can't find it.

	Can anyone suggest a solution to this?
