The truth is that the name works as well.
sure? this I didn't know. so changing the message would be enough!
I think it depends. If you are using DHCP and the DHCP answer also contains the IP-address of a DNS then you can use the name. If you are using a fixed IP-address, it will not work, unless Yast asks for the IP-address of the DNS and you provide one.
Yes, it depends, but network must be reachable. I remember old times there was network setup screen for static IP, and there was option to enter DNS server. I used IP of ftp server only the very first time I installed SUSE, later I found out that the server name works too. -- Regards, Rajko M. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-wiki+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-wiki+help@opensuse.org
