All the hostid program does is print a 32-bit identifier associated with the current machine. Normally, the identifier is related to a machine's IP address, but that's not a requirement. You can set it to whatever you want via the sethostid function call. _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
