Subject: Setting hostname with Sybase::DBLib?
Date: Feb 3 1999 4:59PM

Hello all.

Is it possible to execute the DBSETLHOST macro to change the hostname 
in the login rec?

I need to change this because the dba doesn't like the fact that my 
sybase/perl reports all have the same user/host.  I can't do anything 
about the user, but I know who requested it, so I can do something 
about the host.

If it's not possible, pointers on how to make it possible would be 
greatly appreciated.  Or, even better, how does it decide what the 
hostname is?  Is is just a matter of changing an environment 
variable?

Thanks,

Robert Lang
