Get_local_host: 'localhost' IP address not available!

says linux when I try to send something to the printer with "lpr anyfile"

Here is the output of /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain babe

I use it as a workstation with ppp dial up(RH 7.0/kernel 2.2.16-22/gcc 2.96 20000731)

I am really stuck, I never had this problem before.
Any idea guys ?
