It may respond to pings, but the network name you see on the command line, if there is one, is how your computer has resolved the IP to a name. If you want to have a hostname associated with that IP, then either put it into your /etc/hosts file, or into your DNS server (if you have one). And, the printer will need to stay fixed to the same IP. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.8.13-100.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon May 13 13:36:17 UTC 2013 x86_64 All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the public lists.
