The : 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost line is required and you should not muck with it. Putting the other names and ip addresses in your host files is the way to go. You can also put a HOSTNAME in the /etc/sysconfig/network file. However, what you machine will be called when accessed from another machine is the job of the DNS records on the DNS server you are using. -- ======================================================================= I had pancake makeup for brunch! ======================================================================= Aaron Konstam telephone: (210) 656-0355 e-mail: akonstam@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
