This is a local machine and there is no actual registered domain name,
only localhost.localdomain. I also should add, that I was not trying to
get sendmail to run at all, as I'm not using it. With the IP being
dynamic, how would adding a static IP entry in /etc/hosts help?

yes, as it is the DSL router which acts as both Gateway and DHCP server
as well as DNS

hostname "name" changed the hostname,
[root at home-hehbbzsuy7 ~]# hostname mumpc
[root at home-hehbbzsuy7 ~]# hostname
mumpc
but it returned to original,
[ozboy at home-hehbbzsuy7 ~]$ hostname
home-hehbbzsuy7
upon reboot. How is this changed permanently? Cheers.
