You should be able to send PRs with *any* DNS name that maps to your address. If you want a permanent one, there are some free "dynamic" DNS services out there. If you just want to set the hostname automatically, note that dhclient will do it automatically if the DHCP server sends the hostname to it (and if not, you can probably script something up fairly easily). -- Lowell Gilbert, embedded/networking software engineer, Boston area: resume/CV at http://be-well.ilk.org:8088/~lowell/resume/ username/password "public" _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
