I tried using the address as you suggested above but it says unknown host . . . perhaps I should add it in my hostname file, but my netgear router which acts as the nameserver should know where to go? In any case, when I changed it to the IP address of hostname2 box (192.168.0.3) I got this: ==================================== I [25/Nov/2005:20:23:13 +0000] [Job 56] Connecting to 192.168.0.3 on port 631...
