Hi all;

I have Redhat 6.2 server install.

Would changing localhost to a different name make any difference to
its operation?

ie instead of;

127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain

have 127.0.0.1 gtech gtech.localdomain

and replace localhost in the apache conf with gtech.

So that lynx gtech works. Would this cause me to be unable to use my
ppp connection?

As when I connect and then try to ping the nameserver (230.48.5.1) or
any other ip or name, it just does nothing until I press ctr-c. The it
says that all packets where lost.

I used;

/usr/sbin/pppd /dev/ttyS1 57600 debug user erc connect "/usr/sbin/chat
-v '' AT OK ATDT85534300 CONNECT '\d\c'"

and the output log is;

Stick with this (for the time being).

What have you got in file /etc/resolv.conf ?

you can add other names, but localhost needs to point at 127.0.0.1 
ie 
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.domain gtech
would be fine.
