Can anyone help me with why my system name appears in uppercase in mail headers and when I do a "who am i" even though it appears in lower case everywhere on the system ? -- Vince Skahan Boeing Computer Services - Phila.

As to why it is displayed in upper case I would suggest that you find the system manager for your site and ask them. It is usually a personal matter. >-- > Vince Skahan Boeing Computer Services - Phila. > (215) 591-4116 INTERNET: bcs212%psev@boeing.com > UUCP: {...rutgers!bpa!}vader!bcs212 Dan Ehrlich <ehrlich@psuvax1.{psu.edu,bitnet,uucp}> The Pennsylvania State University, Department of Computer Science 333 Whitmore Laboratory, University Park, PA 16802 +1 814 863 1142 or +1 814 865 9723
