Priya,

You can make the file it mentions 
(/home/gnats/gnats-install/etc/gnats/send-pr.conf) 
and place in it the single line

SUBMITTER=submitterID

where 'submitterID' is the submitter ID you want all PRs submitted from that
machine to come from.  You can add submitter IDs in the 'submitters' file in
the gnats-adm directory of your gnats database.
