Please note that the standard way of setting up a Debian system that lacks a permanent network card is:
$ cat /etc/hostname foo $ hostname foo $ cat /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost foo ... $ hostname -f localhost.localdomain The setup that I recommend, and which I plan to promote as the future standard, for machines without permanent network cards is: $ cat /etc/hostname foo $ hostname foo $ cat /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost 127.0.1.1 foo ... $ hostname -f foo If the machine has a permanent network card with a permanent IP address (i.e., not assigned by DHCP) but no permanent domain name then the standard configuration is: $ cat /etc/hostname foo $ hostname foo $ cat /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost 202.13.55.88 foo ... $ hostname -f foo If the machine has a permanent network card with a permanent IP address and a permanent domain name then the standard configuration is: $ cat /etc/hostname foo $ hostname foo $ cat /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost 202.13.55.88 foo.foodomain foo ... $ hostname -f foo.foodomain On installation, squid should be able to handle all these standard configurations without failing in order to be considered fit for release. -- Thomas Hood <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
