    Question for the linux pro's

    I've been searching for a half hour with no luck.

    [TELNET] CONNECT (<unnamed>/192.168.0.70)

    In linux/Debian

    How do you loose some or all of unnamed to say your domain name and can
    I loose the IP address also?

    Thanks...

    put the machine's name in your DNS' static IP settings or the hosts file on the BBS... this way when the system looks up the IP, it will get the name of the machine... the trick is to use psuedo-static IPs for each machine so they get the same IP all the time...

    but you can also replace that screen and not display any of that information at all if you don't want it ;)
