However, startx gnome put me in IceWM and that's when I changed the settings back to where they were before I started in mcc. Maybe I should have trashed my .kde directory before I left? mcc also remarked out my aeis.tv servername setting in httpd2.conf. This is an assumption because it was working before I changed with mcc and wasn't even after I changed back to localhost. Of course, in the middle of this my isp changed my ip, adding to the confusion. Well all is working now, and I still want to change my hostname, so here I go again.......... Lee
