this computer's local hostname is already in use on this network
has anyone else experienced this issue?
The iMac will display the following error message on the screen every day or so (with the host number incresing by 1 digit each time):
This computer's local hostname "MacName.local" is already in use on this network.The name has been changed to "MacName-1.local". This continues even after I've reset the name in the System Preferences panel/sharing settings, for example ("MacName-2.local, MacName-3.local, MacName-4.local" etc).
Please advise
Currently running an Apple iMac
OS 10.6.8
