Thanks. Pardon me if this is a stupid question, but I don't know what my machines host name is; I used DHCP during installation, and believe that it may have been named .ontrca.adelphia.net by default. How can I determine the localhost name and/or change it? Otherwise, you've provided me with

I realize this is probably not really a FreeBSD question, but I was hoping someone had seen this before. I am running isc-dhcpd 3.0.1.r14_6 on a FreeBSD 4.11-REL machine. This box also serves as the primary gateway router and firewall (and general network services machine). All of my *nix
