I have a request to switch from fixed ip addresses in *lan printer definitions to dns names. DNS is handled within the network, but not the iSeries DNS. 50 locations around the world and iSeries in a bunker site (and dns servers in another site).
Currently iSeries Access clients use dns name for system.
All the printers have unique names.
Why not..
Any known problems?
