Take a look at your /etc/hosts file, it probably contains a line that has something like:
127.0.0.2 <your long host name here> <shortname>
This is a non-existant host, really. You need to modify it, and make sure it contains the true IP number of your host.
Everything else appears to be working okay and, in fact, I can execute YaST2 from the command line and YaST comes up in it's gui form and works as expected. If some of you smart people could suggest a way to proceed, I'd appreciate it.

I'm not sure what you mean by the "true" IP number. I use DHCP. Doesn't that mean that my IP address changes frequently? Or is there a number somewhere that I don't know about? Don Henson
