[NBLUG/talk] IP Host # as Host ID

[HarryH]

Hi,
I noticed on my RH 7.2 that from time to time, if I go into super user mode ( su - and then password), the host IP number from my ISP shows up in place of server03, which is my Linux box Hostname:

[root at host-66-81-144-198 home]#

When I exit back to my user login, I get: [Harry at server03 Harry]$.  This happens when the modem is connected to my ISP.  Noticed this some time ago but thought it a "fluke" but now it must be a bug or an intruder.  Any ideas?

Thanks,
Harry
