set_parms hostname?

[Peter Gillis]

Hi,
UX 11.00 on RP2470 machine. A basic question but I really want to be 100%.
If I was to change the hostname on this machine, would set_parms hostname be the way to do it? Would this change then be carried through to any other system files that rquired the hostname in it, or would that need to be changed manually?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Maria.

Yes,you are right

set_parms hostname

should be the way.

I think it will then require a reboot to take the changes into effect.


Thanks

well , to change the hostname your could :

1) use set_parms
OR
2) change the /etc/rc.config.d/netconf
OR
3) use SAM (Networking & Communication -> Network Interface Cards) . The go to ACTION.

but you still need to change the /etc/host manually ..

Hope this help.

Hi,

#set_parms hostname

is the best way to change the hostname.

if u use set_parms, changes will be done to system files by set_parms, no need to do anything manually. ofcourse it needs a reboot.
