What are the operating systems of the other computers? Is this your own personal lan? I use a Linksys router, the only things that show up are ip's that it has supplied dynamically. If a box is using a static ip, it wont show up on the router. If it's a FBSD box, just the ip shows up, if it's a Win box, the ip and copmuter name will show up. I don't think you have to worry about that. > >> > >> Also, when I start Apache (2.0) I receive a message "Could > >> not determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using > >> 127.0.0.1 for ServerName. > >> Ruben de Groot wrote: I don't remember exactly, it's been a while since I've had Apache install and operating, but I seem to remember having to go into the Apache config file and putting in the the name and ip address.

Can't be. That's the ip address of your Netgear router, it acts as a DHCP server not as a DNS server. What is albyny.adelphia.net? Is that your ISP? You need to get one or more nameserver ip's from your ISP. That's what goes in resolv.conf > > Thanks, > > Bill Don -- Donald J.
