List,

I need to change hostname to my box (as well as the prompt [root@fc3
root]# - i want to change fc3 to some other name); how to do it? what
are the files i need to change?

this should be easy, but for the last hour i'm trying with no success.

thanks.

str

use either system-config-network and change the dns-area or in the shell, change the indicators in /etc/hosts from 127.0.0.1. btw never change the localhost at the end, or you will loose your alias for the loopback-adress.

eg:

127.0.0.1 	computername	computername.yourdomain	    localhost
