Re: [leafnode-list] What the hell is that?
I have been through this. I have successfully installed a fresh hostname,
but it had to be done twice:
1) by editing /etc/hosts. Change the second appearance of "localhost" to the
first word of your new hostname.
2) by changing the hostname with linuxconfig. Matthias was surprised that
both steps were necessary, and I don't know the reason, only that one or the
other was insufficient. My distro is Mandrake 8.2.
I too am using a dialup connection with dynamic allocation of IP address. I
have had no problem with this.
HTH,
Doug.
