------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-04-02 02:50 ------- *** Bug 3631 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-04-02 11:20 ------- No not possible. To connect my PC has to send the right host name. Mandrake wizard does not accept the "-a" in the nostname provided by the provider. Hence no connection possible. In 9.0 the name with the "-a" was accepted by the wizard but not so anymore in 9.1. In my opinion some stupid coding error. There are other problems with Drakconnect. In my portable with built-in wireless and built-in ethernet. Mandrake assings eth0 to the ethernet and eth1 to the wireless connection. However, the wizard will only configure eth1 and is not able to let the user make a choice between et1 and eth0.

The wizard in drakconnect accepts only CC12345 and omits the -a. Hence I cann't connect to the internet. Workaround is manually editing etc/sysconfig/network. Hence mandrake users with internet providers who give out names with a "-" are in serious trouble
