I am not sure if I understand your question correctly. If you want to know which hostname has been assigned to your router/connection by your ISP then you can do something like this: host $(wget www.whatismyip.com/automation/n09230945.asp -O - -o /dev/null) However, that does not mean that you have to give that hostname, or another one from that subdomain, to your laptop when you install it. -- Regards, | http://users.icfo.es/Florian.Kulzer Florian | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
