[App_rpt-users] where is hostname stored

[David KE6UPI]

To change the hostname in ACID.
edit /etc/sysconfig/network
change or add HOSTNAME=

To have it show up in your rounter if your using DCHP:
edit /etc/sysconfig/network-
scripts/ifcfg-eth0
change or add DHCP_HOSTNAME=

Also you should edit /etc/hosts and add you hostname here to faster lookup.

You can also use google to search CentOS Hostname and other things.
