It all comes from the .cf file. I know they're hard to deal with, but all the flexibility you want is there. Funny, this certainly looks hardcoded to me: /* determine host name */ hp = gethostbyaddr(&otherend.sin_addr, sizeof otherend.sin_addr, AF_INET); if (hp != NULL) ---> (void) sprintf(buf, "%s.ARPA", hp->h_name); else /* this should produce a dotted quad */ (void) sprintf(buf, "%lx", otherend.sin_addr.s_addr); RealHostName = newstr(buf); How do you propose I get it to say .UUCP instead of .ARPA? ---rick
