MandrakeControlCentre>Network>Internet to set a hostname If you did not set your MAC address as the hostname yourself, then your ISP is doing it via DNS. To stop it, edit /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 (or whatever) and add the line NEEDHOSTNAME=no Then restart networking and your hostname will revert to that set up in MCC. derek -- www.jennings.homelinux.net http://twiki.mdklinuxfaq.org
