Hi Constant
I had something like this a long time ago, and if my rusty memory serves me correctly it was down to a problem with my networking setup, in particular the DNS settings. Do you have the option to 'change hostname using DHCP' ticked in your network setup?
Cheers
Hi Pete, Must be close to the solution. No idea where to change the hostname using DHCP. Could not fine anything useful. But found out that if I would like to setup a DHCP server the initialization stops with the information: ERROR <Cannot determine the hostname of .>
Looking at this information I would say that somewhere in my setup a dot has creeped up. A dot but where?
check /etc/hosts and /etc/HOSTNAME...either of those have anything other than the proper hostname of the machine? What does the output of `hostname` show? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
