FS MACHINE uses the GTHOST jsys, I believe. Or whatever it's called.
Many EMACS configuration files specify something like
DEFINE HSTNAM
ASCIZ /MIT-SMELL/
TERMIN
or whatever the syntax is. If the intended site is on the arpanet, and
the GTHOST Jsys hasn't changed in 5.3, then it's probably the case that
this macro is defined to be null in the batch file which assembles your
TECO. Try looking at the code for FS MACHINE and see what it's assembled
to do.
Other things may know your host name because of the file
SYSTEM:HOSTNAME.TXT, which maybe EMACS should be allowed to use
conditionalized on some flag or something.
Leigh.
