This probably explains the recent drop in volume for this group: everyone's either waiting for it or playing with it. >Another thing: in the rc.local, there is a line at the top to set the >domain name using, oddly enough, the command /bin/domainname.

For example, my YP domain is "cis.osu", but our Internet domain is "cis.ohio-state.edu". I'm not sure what your problem is with IP. If you're part of an established domain, just make sure that they put you into the appropriate nameserver and hosts files, and all should be well. -=- J Greely (jgreely@cis.ohio-state.edu; osu-cis!jgreely)
