I have an /etc/HOSTNAME and its correct.
I just downloaded and printed the book this morning.

Hmm, I search for /etc/hostname and find two hits on pages 168 and 257 -
both with "/etc/HOSTNAME". Two things:
1) Are you sure you have the same book - the latest is on
http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/abstracts/sg247493.html?Open
2) Are you sure you don't have an /etc/HOSTNAME file with all caps.

Hmm, again I search but do not find /etc/ssh/keygen in the book. I do
see
on page 149:
The SSH keys that were copied are identical to those of the golden
image.
Manually create
three new ones with the ssh-keygen command:
# cd /etc/ssh
# ssh-keygen -t rsa -N "" -q -f ssh_host_rsa_key
ssh_host_rsa_key already exists.
Overwrite (y/n)? y
And yes, the ssh-keygen command should be found in your path in
/usr/bin.
So, hopefully those two problems are cleared up. :))

Just to be sure, what does "iptables -L" return? If your firewall is
off
you should see:
# iptables -L
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
