its kind of weird b/c when i was editing all files
never once did i see debian. all names where
localhost.localdomain. and im not really running a
network or anything. its just a cable modem im using
from powerlink to use the internet. nothing special.
but thxs anyway! everything has been changed.
Try looking at /etc/sysconfig/network. It should currently have a line
that says
HOSTNAME=debian
Change it to whatever address points to your computer, for example, my
file sais:
HOSTNAME=prince.homelinux.org

Quick question if you dont mind, how did RH get the

Sup everyone!
Well i was wondering if i can change the computers
name. I think its also called the host name. The thing
is every time i boot into RH (9), at the login screen
its says "welcome to debian"! ok i admit im a linux
n00b so i was trying out different distros. One of
them was debian. But
thxs for the help but, i dont see debian as a host
name anywhere. all i see under the dns tab, it says
localhost.localdomain and i dont want to touch
something that might mess up. :)

Go to the network configuration in the system settings. Its under the
host name. Good luck.
