So that it will looks something like this:
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost 127.0.0.1 nameiwant.localdomain nameiwant
Then in etc/sysconfig/network I should *change*
HOSTNAME=localhost.localdomain
to
HOSTNAME=nameiwant.localdomain
Is this correct?
This is not correct; you don't want to define 127.0.0.1 (which is a special interface) more than once.
Well then I'm sure glad I asked :)
If all you want to do is create an alias for 'localhost', you can do it like:
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain nameyouwant
Yes believe this is all I wish to do.
Should I then also change in etc/sysconfig/network? :
HOSTNAME=localhost.localdomain
to
HOSTNAME=nameiwant.localdomain
or just leave that part alone?
