nope, not in the config file, it's the system hostname and domainname. If I set hostname to just the name, without the domain, the installer fails, also, if domainname is set to none, it fails. There is no config file to edit, it's a shell script you run that prompts you for this i

You've been told where the 'domainname' is stored. It's "NISDOMAIN" in /etc/sysconfig/network, but it only gets set if you're running ypbind (or ypserv). 'domainname' is NIS information, so if you're not *using* NIS, don't worry about it. On Wed, 2002-05-15 at 13:27, Jake McHenry wrote: > Ok,

set HOSTNAME in /etc/sysconfig/network set domain in /etc/resolv.conf that is all I have ever needed to change. NISDOMAIN will not effect the name or domain that your machine is on, it is only used (AFAIK) to determine where the machine will authenticate if you are using nis authentication. rya
