Two things:

- Please use the CODE tag when posting text of any great length
- I presume you did change hostname from the sample name, "hostname.yourco.com"?

Hi all,

In most cases, it's going to be 'machinename.domain'. So, if your machine is called IBMJUNK and your domain is msinightmare.com, then the entry you want is:

-W nodeHost.hostName="ibmjunk.msinightmare.com"

I imagine your webmaster might be the best person to ask the question or, indeed, the person who requested the packaging of the app. Users are well know for providing zero information.
