Hello,

I am test driving Netware 6.5 and am in the middle of installation. I am 
at the screen where it asks what my Host Name and Domain name is. I don't 
have a DNS server and my name isn't registered so what should I put in 
those boxes? My servername is NW1 so I could put that in the Host Name. 
But, what about the Domain Name? Should I just enter Local?

I am using a router which assigns IP addresses. Since I am still testing 
Netware, and don't have a DNS server, I could just use the HOSTS file on 
the workstation, correct?

Thanks in advance for your help,
John
