First, let me thank all of you who help me with this problem. The solution was that I needed to use the -h <hostname> in dhcpcd. I tried this before but I discovered, by accident, that Windows lied about the case of letters in the hostname. So trial & error made the day. Anyway, thanks to all. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-newbie" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please read the FAQ at http://www.linux-learn.org/faqs
