Hello,
I resolved this issue a few days ago before I read your post. Your correct the machine was not picking up the host name properly. My memory is not so good and I am just a hobbiest again this is HP UX 10.2 for those reading along.
To the best of my memory what I did to resolve this was to login using fail safe mode, go into SAM then went into DNS (BIND) and added a couple of DNS entries used by my ISP. I also had to add an internal domain name. I just made something up for that.
If I am not mistaken in the portion of SAM that makes adding DNS entries possible I right clicked. Upon doing so a menu appeared that I had not seen before. This menu allowed me to configure when the host file was to be used. The way it was configured DNS was set to be used first and then if DNS failed the machine was set to do nothing. I checked a check box which told it to use the host file after DNS failed and it resolved the issue I had.
My host file has my host name, local host, and default gateway only.
Sorry I am such a novice.
I am now able to surf the Internet using IE5 on this vintage machine (Visualize C240) Of course most sites require a newer browser with java support, I did download java for IE5 for Unix it is a depot file? Have not got around to installing it yet.
Anyway I can login and logout just fine now, no core file is produced and I don't have to login using fail safe mode any longer.
