Hi Paul,

Thanks for your reply.

OK, thanks.

In the case of #1, what is the NSLog statement that is failing?  And I
take it that name hasn't been autoreleased before you log it - it will
only survive until the current autorelease pool 'pops'.

Good points and questions.  Here is my method:

+ (NSString *)
computerName
{
    CFStringRef   temp = SCDynamicStoreCopyComputerName (NULL, NULL);
    NSString    * name = [NSString stringWithString: temp];
    NSLog (@"computer name = %@", name);
    CFRelease (temp);
    return name;
}

The line creating temp warns: initialization makes pointer from integer.

The line creating name warns: passing argument 1 of StringwithString from incompatible pointer type
and fails with signal EXC_BAD_ACCESS

Thanks again,

Steve
