Then later to due to dns issues I changed it to match DNS. Now when I get an email from the box it says root@badboy.domain.com instead of the new name. I searched every file I can think of. rc.local,rc.conf , resolv.conf and other files but with no luck. I tried egrep -iR "badboy" / to find it but it was taking a long long time. So killed it. Were do I find it and change it or is it permanently at the original hostname. Thanks Mark
