Re: Changing System Name

["Joe Teff" <jteff19@xxxxxxx>]

I take exception to your statement. Simple, easy to remember names are just 
that. I don't believe it makes them a WISEASS! I don't call you names, return 
the courtesy. A system name is a system name. It has to be identified before 
you can use it. What's obvious to you is not to everyone else.
