<p class="MsoNormal">I’ve got 6 ghost clients listed on my server webpage. I have a clean hosts.cfg file that definitely does not contain any of the names in the ghost list. The ghost names are from many months ago when I first setup the server. I’ve since
change the names. I’ve attempted to clear the ghosts using the following commands but it doesn’t clear anything. Buzzard is one of the hostnames in question.<o:p></o:p></p>
