Sorry for such a newbie question:
I've installed YDL 3.0.1 on several machines in my lab. I'm familiar
with the System Setting->Network application from the main Gnome
menu, but can't figure out how to hget "under the hood" to set
network preferences.
Specifically, now that YDL is installed on the machines, I can access
them externally with ssh by using their mac address,
ie
ssh 0-30-65-bd-4-w5 or ssh 0-30-65-bd-4-w5.ourschool.edu
but I can't get ssh to work with the host name (the machine name is
"pekin" and "ssh pekin" and "ssh pekin.ourschool.edu" also fails)
What text file should I be editing for this sort of machine name
aliasing to work?
the contents of /etc/hosts is presently,
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
127.0.0.2 pekin.ourschool.edu pekin
which allows me (from pekin) to "ssh pekin" successfully, however,
this doesn't allow me to ssh from other machines to pekin.
any thoughts?
