Normally, the host name is assigned by the ISP, so you'd want to enable "Change host name via DHCP". Also becareful with the static address on eth0. It might conflict with the router.
No, thats just wrong. Your host name should never be assigned by the ISP, and you want to specifically disable this. Its wrong enough for windows but its totally wrong for Linux. Further since he is behind a router and gets his IP from the router not the ISP, this is completely off base. -- _____________________________________ John Andersen
