I need some advise on how to name the machines on my network. Here is the current setup:
internet-----------machine1-----------hub------------machine2 My isp has given me a name of ci1000135-a.grnvle1.sc.home.com with a static ip. I also have aquired the name choover.ml.org for the same ip. Is it possible for a machine to have more than one name (i.e. I'd like to know machine 1 as waxman.choover.ml.org). Also, what should I name machine2 (I'd like tux.choover.ml.org). I'm using ip masq. on machine 1 to hide my network which consists of private ip's (192.168.1.1 192.168.1.2). So far, everything is working as far as internet access from both machines. However machine 2's mail is screwed up, and from comments an a previous question, it looks like a naming issue. Also, is it possible for me to set up the network where I can access either machine from the internet? TIA, Chris
