When I try to download packages in xemacs 21, It first tries to connect to the ftp server. It the gives me an error: efs is unable to determine a fully qualified domain name for the local host to send as an anonymous ftp password.
The function `system-name' is not returning a fully qualified domain name. An attempt to obtain a fully qualified domain name with `efs-nslookup-program' (currently set to "nslookup") has elicited no response from that program. Consider setting `efs-generate-anonymous-password' to an email address for anonymous ftp passwords. For more information see the documentation (use C-h v) for the variables `efs-nslookup-program' and `efs-nslookup-threshold'. After i set the password manually through the efs-generate-anonymous-password it works, the problem is that when I try to set the variable before hand I get an error that there is no such variable. Is there a way to set it in the .emacs file in order to solve the problem? Thanx [EMAIL PROTECTED]
