[My] hostname follows the form of "CPE<computer mac>-CM<modem mac>.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com". Since neither the computer nor cable modem macs change, the host name is permanent.
As I noted in a previous post, my hostname has a different form, though still related to my MAC address: You: "CPE<computer mac>-CM<modem mac>.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com Me: h<modem MAC>.ne.client2.attbi.com. Is that because I'm on Comcast and you're on Rogersnet (or whatever your ISP is called)? Paul Abrahams
