This time its in a term window in X. When I try to run cvsup cvsupfile I get the following message - Cannot get IP address of my own host - - is it's host name correct? I don't get this when I run from the console, only when in X. Maybe this is related to a problem with X itself? When I shutdown X the messages on the console show - waiting for xserver to shut down xauth: (argv):1: bad display name "cwiegand2:0" in "remove" command when I enter hostname at the console I get cwiegand2 Any idea what I should do about this? -- Chip Wiegand Computer Services Simrad, Inc www.simradusa.com chip.wiegand@simrad.com "There is no reason anyone would want a computer in their home." --Ken Olson, president, chairman and founder of Digital Equipment Corporation, 1977 (They why do I have 9?
