Got it to work! :) :) :) localhost.localdomain was already in the host name box, so retyped it thinking it needed verification. No good. But as soon as I entered local.localhost.localdomain, it worked like a charm. :) (I want to learn networking and ultimately set my machine as a server, but one step at a time..........) Many thanks!
