I need to set my hostname *manually* after connecting with dynamic IP address to match it. When I make hostname as alias to localhost, several programs works incorrectly f.e. 'talk' produce user@localhost request which not fits. Does anybody have any ideas how to implement automatic hostname setting for user-level PPP and SLIP dynamic addresses? -- Andrey A.
