Well, he responded to almost immediately when I mailed him ast night (actually about 2:00 AM EDT ), and I gave him the correct syntax for hostname on Solaris. He sounded like this was the first he had heard about it. However, perhaps given the importance of SA and the symplicity of what this does, SA might want to just not use this module and do something else -- even ask for the FQDN in the configure part, when it asks for the e-mail address to use and the other questions. Looking at the code for S::H::L -- it seems like overkill for such a simple function -- rather than decide at install time what system it is and install the proper code, each time it is called is tries to detect what kind of system it is on and do the appropriate thing. Also, hostname is called without any kind of path, replying on the setting of $PATH The more I think about it I think SA should just drop the module and do something else. ========================================================== Chris Candreva -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- (914) 967-7816 WestNet Internet Services of Westchester http://www.westnet.com/
