I am feeling pretty foolish right now that I can't figure out how to change
a guests hostname.
I made a copy of a RH linux quest using DDR.
IPLed the machine.
Modified all the network settings so that it had it's own IP address.
I can ssh to it fine.  But it has the old hostname.
I have tried using the hostname command to set it to the new name.
I have tried creating an /etc/HOSTNAME file with the new name.
But every time I re-IPL the old hostname comes back.
Can someone tell me where I need to change it so that it is permanent?

TIA
