I have a box with 5 ip's pointing to it. Most of the things I run (http,

wondering what the machines hostname should be? By default it's
localhost.localdomain. This has always confused me from the begining when I
first started using FreeBSD, can anyone chime in? It would greatly
appreciated.
Thanks!
I always give my servers a hostname and IP for the base system. If I add a
website, I will add another IP (or use apache's virtual hosting on the same
IP) and add another DNS entry for the system. You can have more than one
name for an IP and for a server.
