IP's are dynamically asigned.. What should I set my Hostname IP and domainname IP if I don't know what my address is going to be? I can connect and then I usually shell and type hostname ip.address.assigned.to.me and I can connect to things off the net using IP addresses, but it isn't looking it up in my dns.... Please respond in e-mail because I don't often get to check newsgroups Thanks
