A small question: there's not environment variable already set to dig up the
hostname? All I did was checked with 'set' ?

hey. I mean I've never touched one of these things before..:-)

the "hostname" command echoes the hostname...

man hostname

Sorry, not as an environment variable. If you need to get it from a
script, man hostname. If you need it from a C program, man
gethostname.

In any case - thank you both, Alan and Alex!
