I think it was trying to resolve your FQDN. Try rlogin phaeton.lambert.org and rlogin phaeton.lambert.org. and see if this makes any difference. also, try domain lambert.org or (exclusive) search lambert.org in your /etc/resolv.conf > In theory, I should be able to put in machine names *without* a > domain in my hosts file; the domain name is the "name" of my > netblock for the pruposes of DNS, after all.

I always put it like this: 207.111.140.47 dog.farm.org dog and it works without internet connection (I run a local named which is primary for farm.org, but I configure interfaces using full hostnames when named is not yet run, and it doesn't wait) > The one thing that's been solved so far is that I have the idle > timeout working now; that was mostly stupidity on my part; I > had a cron that did a cvssup. I do it manually now. make a ppp connection established put a flag (a regular ifconfig ppp0 | grep UP can do ) then use this flag as a condition in crontab entries...
