Gregory, It looks like your host-server doesn't have a hostname. You will need to fix this to make your server work correctly on the Internet. Under Red Hat, edit /etc/sysconfig/network to change your hostname, then reboot or run "/etc/rc.d/network restart". (The fact you don't have a hostname suggests something went wrong (no network support was installed) during your installation of Linux...)
And then to fix the error you're getting, you need to do something like "ln -s / /home/vsd/vs/fqdn.of.host.server.com" Simon ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rob Secrist" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, December 13, 2001 6:27 AM Subject: Re: Install Question > > Greetings Gregory, > The command should be as follows: > > /usr/sbin/vsdadm vs_create fqdn.of.hosting.server vsone 172.16.5.10 vsone.com 200 5 skel > > type hostname on the hosting server, that is the address you should put instead of localhost. > > Hope this helps. > Regards, > Rob > > On 2001.12.12 12:05 Gregory C.
