Hi,
I have a problem whit my hostname. When ik get my IP from my ISP via DHCP then will be chechged my hostname to cust. The DNS from my IP is cust.x.xxx.adsl.cistron.nl
I see in my log that dhcp chancges my reslov.conf. Why ?
Because you have your dhcp configuration setup to do this. You can change this, although, typically, you want to accept the dns entries from dhcp.
I dont know how to fix this problem... I only know that mysql can`t start because i dont have a host name anymore.
You can manually reset your hostname, see 'man hostname'
When i do hostname -f i see dont know host (or something)
When i boot whit out a inernet contection there is no problem till i make a contection.

did you check your entries in /etc/hosts? As far as I know prorams get the hostnames out of this file.
Your machine's host name is not taken from /etc/hosts. Typically it is set at boot by an rc process and usually can be found in /etc/hostname or /etc/HOSTNAME -- Until later, Geoffrey Registered Linux User #108567 Building secure systems inspite of Microsoft
