When you login to a dialup, you get this message:
If you are having trouble using the dialup service, please contact
an Athena User Consultant at 253-4435 or use OLC. When reporting
your problem please include the hostname of the machine.
But it doesn't tell you the hostname. Not every user, especially
novice users, knows about the 'hostname' command, and it won't
do you any good anyway if somehow the login doesn't succeed far
enough to get you a prompt. How about adding the hostname to this
login message?
