</I>You're missing a fundamental point, Marc. If your boxes can't find each other by
name (by converting the name to an IP), they can't communicate by name.

Your network is not adequately setup for that, since you haven't provided any way
for the boxes to know who they are, by name. This problem exists for ANY network
of computers, whether Windows, Mageia, MacOS, etc..

Wiki: DNS

man: /etc/hosts , /etc/resolve.com

I think there is a graphical tool in mcc to enter the names and IP addresses of
hosts. If so, use that. (I don't have time right now to boot my laptop and look)
