I had the same thing happen to me (with the stock kernel) only in my case I was labled as www.cnn.com . This was some freak accident of dhcp lease renual while the browser was up ideling on cnn's page I suspect, but I have never been able to repeat it. When I pinged the machine from somewhere else it reported back its Reverse DNS as cnn. It happened exactly once, and was solved remotely by ssh in and rebooting it. -- _________________________________ John Andersen / Juneau Alaska
