Thank you, Aron. I don't have static IP. However, I just found a solution for my problem.
I have this problem since I don't have static IP. So I have to use DHCP. The DHCP will overwrite the hostname. The solution to this, in case someone needs this, is using Mandrake Control Center, the network wizard in expert mode. --- Aron Smith <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Mon, 2003-12-29 at 20:38, Xue-Feng Yang wrote: > > I found the location of the firewall related > > configurations files.
