Should be you reverse DNS lookup. You have two options:
1) Kindly ask your ISP to fix his/her DNS settings. If you are your own
IP's DNS admin, order DNS & Bind from O'Reilly or sign up @
safari.oreilly.com. ;-) 2) Log in, su to root ("su -") and edit
/etc/hosts. Fill in your IP with an appropriate name and all should be
well.
Step 0: install SSH, test it and kick telnet! This cannot be stressed
enough. Browse through the archives for details.
Good luck... Nico
