The same effect can be had by changing the hostname in the DNS tab of
system-config-network.  Contents of /etc/hosts can be edited from the
Hosts tab.
I did that, but it only really worked when i made what Norm said.

seems like /etc/sysconfig/network can only be changed by editing it by
hand, I had to restart the server in order to have the changes
applied.

As I said, this is false. Change the name in the DNS tab of system-config-network and save your changes. Then look at /etc/sysconfig/nework and see.

You do have to restart after making this change, or you need to make other changes as described elsewhere in this thread.
