Is this a centos/ACID box? TRY adding or editing the "HOSTNAME=" line in: /etc/sysconfig/network Was almost able to do this from memory but had to google it by searching for "centos change hostname" Not everyone is going to know exactly what to search for. :-) so I won't griping "google is your friend" anytime soon :-) Tested here and works :-) [root@N8LBV-R ~]# -Steve
Does any linux guru out there know how to change the DHCP client name from TEST?
I followed the instruction to use system-config-network and suceeded in changing the shell prompt to the host name I want, but my router still says the node name is TEST.
Some internet searching came up with the "dhclient" command - which works - but after the next lease renewal it is back to TEST again. That name must be buried someplace in the linux configuration.
