And the file is still called book.cls? [And is found by LaTeX?]
Bad idea for two reasons.
#1 is political, you would not be allowed to distribute such a file
according to the LaTeX Project Public License.
#2 is rather technical: it sometimes simply doesn't work ;-)
As you can't show us what you've done due to #1, we can't help in case
#2. The good news is that renaming the file does not only get you
out of #1 but usually automagically solves #2. (Assuming of course ypu
put the file in a place where LaTeX finds it...)
Note that in case of LyX you'd additionally need to copy book.layout to
mybook.layout and tweak the second line of this file...
