Okay, I'm still trying to sort out stuff on my sons comp and here is the latest problem (I don't know why I didn't notice this earlier). We have a 4 comp LAN here, 3 desktops hardwired, and 1 laptop via wireless. The comps run like this:
192.168.0.100 darkforce.ky.org (my main comp, v9.2, no problems) 192.168.0.101 darkforce2.ky.org (my sons - the 10.0 problem comp) 192.168.0.102 darkforce3.ky.org (younger son, v9.2 no problems) 192.168.0.104 darkforce4.ky.org (my laptop, v9.2, no problems) On my sons comp, I have: 192.168.0.101 darkforce2.ky.org darkforce2 in /etc/hosts I've got: HOSTNAME=darkforce2.ky.org IPADDR=192.168.0.101 in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts and I set the IP address and hostname in the Internet wizard as well as being root and just doing a "hostname darkforce2.ky.org". Never the less, when I open up a terminal, or do uname -a, it reports the system as being "darkforce3.ky.org". As root, I can do a "hostname darkforce2.ky.org", log out of any terminal and log back in and then it shows the correct hostname. Until I reboot. Then the "3" shows up again. Anyone have any ideas whats going on here? Thanks! -- /\ Dark< >Lord \/
