If you still want to be able to connect to a computer on the basis of its name/FQDN in your LAN, you can enter this in the client PC's /etc/host file: 192.168.1.8 livecd.yourLANdomain livecd Alternatively, you will need to set up a DNS service in a PC within your LAN and point livecd to 192.168.1.8. Bear in mind that the above will only work reliably if you have defined a static IP address (e.g. 192.168.1.8) for the livecd PC on your router. PS. To connect to it from a MS Windows machine with e.g. PuTTY you'll need the corresponding entry in the system32/hosts file. -- Regards, Mick
