If you are talking about when you ssh to the machine (or for anything else that would use the hostname variable that it gets from the machine) then I do not know of a way to make it be different based on the IP that you connect to. If you are using something that does DNS names, then if you setup the proper forward and reverse records it will work. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
