What name do you give your computer? I just installed FC6 and set myhostname to knute.sagebrush.frazmtn.com. My gateway router issagebrush.frazmtn.com and I used my name for this computer. I've runinto a couple of snags though. Since knute.sagebrush.frazmtn.comdoesn't have a DNS entry anywhere I can't relay mail through remoteservers. If I set my computer to localhost.localdomain then I can relaymail just fine. What do you do if you don't have a fixed IP?


Thanks,
