Fedora Users — Re: renaming my linux box

Most people should learn the REAL way to make changes, IF by chance the GUI doesn't work OR works incorrectly they can still function :)
Coming from a REAL REAL old schooler, I perfer to edit the files manually, so I know they are correct. GUI is fine in some cases, but knowing what is UNDER the GUI will greatly increase a persons know-how when it comes to linux and better perpare them for fixing issues later.

You are right, my mistake. BTW, in addition to the /etc/hosts file,

need to change the /etc/sysconfig/network file

Perhaps strange coming from the old guy who usually recommends the
command-line approach, but system-config-network is the GUI way to
handle all the non-samba options discussed in this thread.
