I've grep-ped the whole of /etc, no mention of "Knoppix" there. I've also looked in /var/lib/NetworkManager/dhclient-enp6s8.conf to see what hostname NetworkManager sends to dhclient. No trace of "Knoppix" in there either. What else could it be creating or overriding a Local Address with one called "Knoppix", rather than what was set at installation time? -- Regards, Mick
