Hi Greg,

Sorry to bother you on a weekend, but I'm shifting my servers around, splitting our database and intranet off onto a different server from licenses and Rush. As a result I've had to rename the license/Rush server so that everyone's web browser points instead to the new one. This seems to now be breaking Rush. The server and/or client daemons cannot resolve the host name internally, even though it's set correctly everywhere including in the old server's /etc/hostconfig. The original rush server was named "vegas", now it's renamed "oldvegas". Here's what appears in the server log:
