Here is the info. Looks like the machine is named Sandstorm instead of
Linuxbox. Sandstorm is what I had intended the workgroup name to be
for my network. Can I change this so that the computername is
Linuxbox?
Linuxbox:/home/brent# cat /etc/hosts

# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts

ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
