I changed my hostname recently and found the following 3 files in /etc: /etc/hostname /etc/hosts /etc/mailname The first should be changed when using hostname to set a new hostname. The second should have the localhost line modified as well. Maybe there should be a trigger for those services that require knowing the hostname. I found /etc/exim/exim.conf, /etc/apache/conf/httpd.conf, etc/ppp/options.ttyXX and the ssh host key files. I've left the ssh keys alone, but the rest was easy to change. ciao, der.hans -- # [EMAIL PROTECTED] home.pages.de/~lufthans/ www.DevelopOnline.com # I chose to use the kernel sources as my documentation. ;-) # -- Kevin Buettner
