Greetings!

Apart from /etc/HOSTNAME & /proc/sys/kernal/hostname, what else do I
have to change to alter the hostname of a box? When I boot the /proc
entry reverts to the old entry.

I have two boxes to modify. Both are RedHat (differing versions)

Before anybody asks, yes I have also modified the relevant (LM)HOST
files (no DNS), so once I get it right the machines will still find each
other.

Thanks.

Dave

This Murphy person has a LOT to answer for :)
