[gentoo-user] Problem with hostname

[Mark Shields]

I first noticed this problem when the tightvnc server refused to
start, giving some errors about unknown token "(" and ")".  I then
noticed my prompt had changed from -- laeb mark#  -- to -- (none) mark
# .  A day or so prior I had moved the hostname and dnsdomainname from
their deprecated location to the new location, /etc/conf.d/.  Prior to
that I believe it was working fine.  I have since powered it down once
(moved it from one location to another).  Any ideas?  As for seeing
what the server prints out on screen before it gives a login prompt
(to see what FQDN it prints out), I'm unable to give that information
at the moment as I'm logged in at work via ssh.
