He means was it intentional that you used an *.com domain on a lan. When you do that, the ambiguity that results is your fault, not the fault of whoever out there has those domains on the public net. Ambiguity = problems. Unnecessary ambiguity = unnecessary problems. Don't use <short-string>.com .org .net etc domains on lans unless you need to and are prepared to deal with the complications of getting that to do what you think you want it to do. Even when you actually own the name, it's still a complication although at least then it's possible to address (no pun). -- bkw -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
