Restart the network, and it should pickup the new hostname. However, I'd also restart (at least) dns and sendmail. dns just because, and sendmail because it probably won't like a new hostname while it's running. Xwindows won't either, for that matter. - -D - -- pgp key: http://www.tuxfan.homeip.net:8080/pgpkey.txt - -- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE8BGiFeMAUbzJhSVcRAgplAJ9qkmfeCSHncSqSYzgjW7E1p363bwCeIIIa TFQMJtwzOgX52TIL5LA6p5U= =lvbH -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
