Hi,
I am changing the hostname on Ubuntu 24.04LTS server.
I do the following:
Change the hostname using sudo vi /etc/hostname
Change the hostname using sudo vi /etc/hosts
Restart : sudo systemctl restart systemd-hostnamed
Verify with : hostnamectl which returns the new hostname
However when I issue the command "hostname" it gives me the old
hostname.
When I do a reboot the command hostname give the new hostname.
Any thoughts why this is?
Thanks!!
Keith
