We have a Sun4 Sparcstation1 running Sun OS 4.1 (4.1.1 coming soon) that I
want to set up UUCP on.  The UUCP software from sun appears to assume that
the UUCP name will be derived from the host's internet name:  If the
internet name is "FOO.BAR.BLEFF", then the UUCP name will be "FOO".

Does anyone know if there's a way to specify a different UUCP name that's
not based on the internet name?
