[QUOTE="rman, post: 5947, member: 23"] This would be a guess. I have not found a resolv.conf file which contains the dns information. I think that jaguar can not resolve the given name to and ip address. So it displays the ip address. I don't think the terminal prompt is dependant on dns. I know if you bring up your Apple with no network connection, the prompt in the terminal is still your host name. At least that is in my experience. [/QUOTE]
