I own several domain names and wanted to give my system an alias to match
with my domain names (they're all related). This is on a laptop running MDK
8.1. If I open up linuxconf and go to the networking, then adaptor 1 (my
eth0 card) and in the aliases box enter ANYTHING (it is blank), it
OK, I have always been stuck with either localhost or whatever name my dhcp
server gives me (today I am d152-159). I would LIKE to give myself an alias
of my choice but every time I've made any moves in that direction, it borks
my system. KDE chokes and cannot connect to itself anymore, no
