To find out what your hostname.domainname is: cat /etc/sysconfig/network Mine looks like: $ cat /etc/sysconfig/network HOSTNAME=abbmdk.mshome.net NETWORKING=yes $ >From there you get: yourhostname=abbmdk yourdomainname=mshome.net My /etc/hosts looks like 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain 127.0.0.1 abbmdk abbmdk.mshome.net Good luck, Adolfo
