Hi,
Just installed Redhat lastnight and I have two problems:
A) I was using x-windows and I was playing with modem and hostname settings
and I tried to connect to my ISP, however the screen hung on me so I
pressed "Ctrl+Alt+Backspace" to shut down the x-server. Then I did "startx"
to get back in but it wont let me, all I see is a screen with an "x" for a
mouse curser. I wait and wait but it never loads up. Any ideas on how to
fix this?
B) In the network configurator I put Host: nelson , Domain: ihug.com.au But
what do I put for Name and NickNames in the Hosts section? at the moment it
reads:
IP Name NickNames
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain
(I dont run a network and I only dailup to my ISP which is ihug.com.au)
Thanks in Advance
Nelson
