I'm not familiar with this error, but what does the "hostname" command output? If it's not a fully qualified name, try setting one with: hostname myhost.mydomain.com You can also edit /etc/sysconfig/network and set HOSTNAME=myhost.mydomain.com and edit /etc/hosts to include your FQDN and ip address. (I use the loopback address 127.0.0.1) Hope that helps! > If you want to solve this at a later stage, restart > this script with > the --force option... > > I've got a prompt with the name [root@dhcppc1]# > > Sorry, but I'm a little confused... > > __________________________________ > Do you Yahoo!? > New and Improved Yahoo!
