And when trying to connect via SSH:
ssh: Could not resolve hostname HOSTNAME.local: nodename nor servname

the slug
From what I understand, it seems you have only changed the /etc/hostname
file. You also need to add the entries to the /etc/hosts file on each slug
for all the hosts on the network. You could also employ a DNS server, but
that would probably be overkill and BIND9 isn't exactly the easiest thing

After editing /etc/hostname the prompt on the NSLU2 changes, but it's not
possible to ping or connect using the hostname.
