-
- SW> setenv HOSTNAME `AmiTCP:bin/hostname`

- the trouble is with your provider. I frequently have this problem, I
- have to use another line to get it to work and sometimes it do not work
- at all. Then I use my text access (with Term) and post them a message
- explaining the trouble, they usually fix it fast enough so it is really
- their fault.
