I'm out of them.
IIRC, your problem was that your hostname was set by dhcp, but your tmdns was configured for your desired name? (cooker vs dhcppc5 IIRC)? In that case, it must just be that the init script is not setting your hostname correctly. There was a recent change somewhere (dhcp) that seems to have been intended to fix it. Are you getting the hostname you setup, or are you still getting your hostname from the dhcp server? Also, what hostname is listed in /etc/tmdns.conf? If there is one, just comment it out, and restart tmdns, and see if you can $ getent hosts `hostname` Regards, Buchan - -- |--------------Another happy Mandrake Club member--------------| Buchan Milne Mechanical Engineer, Network Manager Cellphone * Work +27 82 472 2231 * +27 21 8828820x121 Stellenbosch Automotive Engineering http://www.cae.co.za GPG Key http://ranger.dnsalias.com/bgmilne.asc 1024D/60D204A7 2919 E232 5610 A038 87B1 72D6 AC92 BA50 60D2 04A7 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQE+Z7O3rJK6UGDSBKcRAlYzAKCbIdhSxqmG0q/+y1SHfEf3rXDZTQCgmphu VFXbxRgRFo7A7Y4MBa/EYNE= =pOd7 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
