just the 'nom-de-plume' for the node i use to
connect to debian from.

% cat < /etc/networks
isp     208.33.90.0
lan     192.168.1.0
private 192.168.0.0

% cat < /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1       localhost
208.33.90.85    server   server.serensoft.com
192.168.1.1     linus    linus.lan
192.168.1.100   wdt      jonathon.lan
192.168.1.101   jrmac    junior.lan
192.168.1.200   kat      libris.lan
192.168.0.1     diode     debian
%

BTW ... anyone have a 'debian' way to name
intranet subnets and nodes?
