Just call it 'dhcpcd -h foo' if hostname is foo. Andrei -- First there was Explorer... Then came Expedition. This summer Coming to a street near you.. Ford Exterminator. -- Andrei Ivanov http://arshes.dyndns.org [EMAIL PROTECTED] 12402354 --

RE: where do I specify my hostname for dhcpcd?
I've been playing with this, and conferring with Andrei off list. I was used to static entries in /etc/init.d/network...when @Home switched my subnet to completely dynamic I had no choice but to install the DHCPCD package. From the command line as root...dhcpcd -h crxx-x gets me going...ifconfig and route show the proper info. What init file should I place this entry? Thanks all.
