No, yours is correct. The domainname should be exactly that, the domain. The hostname should be the boxname plus the domain, which is called an FQDN. The domainname is like a family last name. The hostname gets specific with the name of the box plus it's family name. LX __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
