Neither is the name in the registry - nothing except other windows computers understand that. The name of a computer is the result of looking up the primary IP in DNS (eth0:0 in UNIXs). Other optional names may also be present, if you have multiple (virtual) interfaces present. If you want to confuse matters by fiderling your hosts file, I think that is rather your own fault :-) -- Tom C "Land of the free, home of the brave... you have to be brave to live there and enjoy the freedoms" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Your ad could be here.
