Hi.
Has anyone found that when querying the sysprocesses table, the hostname column only seems to be filled in for clients connecting from Windows and Unix? When connecting from Mac OS X, the hostname column is empty, presumeably because the Mac doesn't broadcast a hostname.
Does anyone know if it is possible to get Macs to broadcast a hostname in this situation?
Many thanks.
