Well I tryied this command by puting it in the .bashrc file on both
the host system and the target remote. It did not alter the
kde-session-tab at all. Then I tried just issuing the command
from the CLI and it did nothing either. So I'm not sure
I'm trying this solution as intended.
Or for the ip you can try this evil command... ;) (it depends on
sys-apps/iproute2 and will be overridden by $PS1 -- try in another terminal if
you just typed the above command) ...

From the command line I get this error:
bash: ip: command not found
Anyway, what's wrong with Mike Williams' suggestion? That's works fine for me.
OK, I'm going to respond to this, directly from Mike's email. I had
not gotten around to trying what he suggested, yet.

Are you absolutely certain that this option is enabled:
Settings - Configure Konsole - General -
Set tab title to match window title
? And make sure you don't make a typo...
Try it in e.g. an xterm also. You should see your hostname in the title. It
works for me at least...

Uh, I forgot that I have created this symbolic link to allow users to execute
ip (without giving the full path):
# ls -l /bin/ip
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 1 jun 11:28 /bin/ip - /sbin/ip
Prepending the command by /sbin/ should work too (if sys-apps/iproute2 is
installed).

You can set the tab title of konsole with something like
setkonsoletabtitle () {
echo -en \e]30;$*\a
}
For ssh I have another shell function:
ssh () {
setkonsoletabtitle $1
command ssh $@
cd .
# that sets the tab title back to the normal local look here
}
Of course this only works nicely if you use ssh host or ssh
[EMAIL PROTECTED] and not ssh -l user host.

Yes, but if I ssh into a new system with a previoulsly unknow name or IP, then I have to manually change this information? If that is true, then it is not what I want/need. I need auto_discovery of either the hostname or IP address of the remote target, passed to the kde-session-tab-name. That's the challenge. It's for newly installed machines with new names and IP. Or some remote machine, I have never ssh'd into before. Furthermore, as the list grows very large, I it will become a pain doing this before remote access. Many are gentoo based but other are not. I can modify some files on the remotes, if necessary, but many will only be remotely admin'd one or twice a year (hopefully). Auto_magically maybe it's easier to auto_magically discover (pass) the remote's ip address to the kde-session-tab-name parameter? James -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
