Changing the hostname

kiernek · 2009-02-26 09:05:46

When I'm connecting in many networks my hostname is always changing (new-host3,....etc). I have problems with that like "Kontact is now ruuning on new-host3, do you really open program", or can't run mysqld. How block changing that?

My configuration files:

HOSTNAME="localhost"
eth0="dhcp"
INTERFACES=(eth0)
DAEMONS=(syslog-ng cpufreq laptop-mode dbus hal @network !networkmanager netfs crond @mysqld @httpd !cups sshd)

127.0.0.1               localhost.localdomain   localhost

Do you have any idea?

Not sure, but this may be an issue of calling your computer localhost. Replace "name" with a name of your choice.

HOSTNAME="name"

127.0.0.1               localhost.localdomain   localhost   name
