Thank you so much for the quick replies of the following managers:

From: Tham Huei Hwan <Tham.Huei.Hwan@bass.com.my>
From: Steve Gray <sagray@amp.com>
From: "Frederic Piard" <frederic.piard@erli.gsi.fr>
From: amy.hollander@amp.com (Amy Hollander)
From: tkevans@eplrx7.es.duPont.com (Tim Evans)
From: mary@datacube.com (Mary Verge X3067)
From: stern@sunrise.East.Sun.COM (Hal Stern - Distinguished Systems Engineer)
From: koen@ciminko.be (Koen Peeters)

I checked the file /etc/hostname.le0 and it was empty. So I added the ip
address to the file /etc/hostname.le0 as Koen Peeters and Hal Stern suggested
and rebooted the machine. And voila, it works like a charm.

You guys are great.

Thanks again, Aline...
