OK, here's the issue. I moved to the Bay Area. I have a new internet
service provider. It's Comcast. I've got Windows XP and FC4 on my
computer. Just a couple days ago everything was working great (with
new service). But all of a sudden the whole host internet address has
blown up. When I login, a message says Gnome cannot function properly
without an internet address for my_computer_name. Opening an
x-terminal, I noticed that the command line reads
my_login@my_computer_name. This is odd. In the past it read
my_login@internet_host_address_deal. So now I can't remotely login to
other places and what-not. The web browser still works though. So,
the Gateway has to be working. The system just doesn't login with the
internet address (like it used to do).
I would definitely appreciate any help here.

If your browser still works, then you have to be getting an ip. Try
adding my_computer_name to your hosts file on the line that says
127.0.0.1, but don't get rid of the localhost and localhost.localdomain,
just add it to the end.
