Server Name

[Hektor]

What file do I need to edit to change the server name (host name)?

[Tor]

Use the hostname command:

# hostname NewName

The file is located at /etc/hostname and you can use these other commands to view the hostname:

# uname -n
# hostname -a
# hostname -s
# hostname -d
# hostname -f
# hostname

You asking about the network server or the internet server??
if you want to know about the network server then tor advised you right thing..

[Hektor]

Thanks, that worked.

You can also manually edit that file as well.

When I manually edit that file it doesn't seem to work.
