Hi Andrew,
In my quest to override nodelist settings with those in mbsetup, I discovered
that anytime a setting was put in Inet hostname (7.x.3), any other logging
reporting (mbout n ... and log files), show the BBS name as the Inet
Hostname. Can figure out why it should change the BBS name?
lib/nodelist.c around line 764.
/*
* Get system name
*/
if ((q=strchr(p,',')))
*q++ = '\0';
if (ndrecord && strlen(nd.Nl_hostname)) {
Syslog('+', "getnlent: %s system name override with %s",
ascfnode(addr,0xff), nd.Nl_hostname);
nodebuf.name = nd.Nl_hostname;
} else
nodebuf.name = p;
