(C:

by "demo" I mean that I am going to be using it temporarily to get user 
feedback before I go live, mostly though I want to be able to test it and 
conintue to develop it. I have tried using "computername" but not 
"portnumber" I'll try that. I think that it may be linked to another problem 
I am having with my installation.

The name of my computer, as far as I can tell (my linux experience is a ripe 
2 days old now), h4-4-4-4.ispname.net where 4-4-4-4 is arrived at from my ip 
which would be 4.4.4.4 (I have changed the actual numbers :P ) I get an 
error when I boot up saying that Gnome may not run properly because my ip 
can't be resolved properly and I should try to enter it into my etc/hosts 
file, which I did to no avail.

I appreciate the help A LOT I am swimming in the dark here but now I'm sure 
that I have to resolve this problem before I get this fixed.

Any ideas what would cause that error in linux? (off topic I know, sorry)
