When installing FC5 I set the hostname to "arrakis.homelinux.com" when it should've been "arrakis.homelinux.org". running "system-config-network", and changing the hostname with the GUI, then running "service network restart", or even rebooting, fails to effect the result of "hostname". [thufir@arrakis ~]$ [thufir@arrakis ~]$ hostname arrakis.homelinux.com [thufir@arrakis ~]$ [thufir@arrakis ~]$ cat /etc/hosts # Do not remove the following line, or various programs # that require network functionality will fail. 127.0.0.1 arrakis.homelinux.org arrakis localhost.localdomain localhost [thufir@arrakis ~]$ [thufir@arrakis ~]$ date Thu Sep 7 06:32:32 IST 2006 [thufir@arrakis ~]$ [root@arrakis ~]# [root@arrakis ~]# system-config-network /usr/share/system-config-network/netconfpkg/NC_functions.py:30: DeprecationWarning: rhpl.log is deprecated and will be removed; use python's logging instead import rhpl.log [root@arrakis ~]# [root@arrakis ~]# [root@arrakis ~]# [root@arrakis ~]# date Thu Sep 7 06:37:46 IST 2006 [root@arrakis ~]# [root@arrakis ~]# I do notice a warning WRT depreciation, so I'll update the system. I've also rebooted, no change in the hostname. -Thufir
