Yesterday, with the help of you good guys - I changed my hostname from localhost.localdomain to mach3.ve3drg.ampr.org. I changed it in the /etc/sysconfig/network file.
Now today, being that it is a new day and the computer had been rebooted - that file changed back to what it had been. Here is what it shows today: NETWORKING=yes GATEWAY=192.168.0.1 GATEWAYDEV="" HOSTNAME=localhost.localdomain What caused that to happen? My entries in the /etc/hosts file are: 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost 24.224.173.45 mach3.ve1drg.ampr.org mach3 24.138.74.225 ve1att.ampr.org ve1att 212.204.214.114 irc.openproject.net 192.168.0.199 buffy What did I forget to do. My network is DHCP and I am running RH8.0 -- T.L.Gervais Coldbrook, NS Canada. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
