Hostname not getting changed
Hello All,
I tried changing my hostname of the system using set_parms command but after reboot it is showing the old hostname.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Titu

Re: Hostname not getting changed
I might suggest doing the following:
vi /etc/rc.config.d/netconf
edit the line:
HOSTNAME="your-new-hostname"
Also, change the hostname in the /etc/hosts file as well.
To set the value, either reboot or issue the following:
# /sbin/init.d/hostname start
Use the command # uname -n to confirm. Also run # nslookup <your-host-name> to be sure the system resolves itself properly.
