I'd expect that, too. However, do you sometimes find the computer thinks it's localhost.localdomain, and other times has a real domain/host name? One possible cause for *sometimes* having problems like this, rather than consistent problems, can be having two DHCP servers on a LAN (such as a modem/router as well as something else), with one properly doling out addresses, another improperly doing so, and occasional clashes between them. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
