And you know the hostname can't change /etc/HOSTNAME when you use 'hostname embelex', when you restart it again, the hostname you set will be dismiss. I've changed my hostname like Comment 3, it works fine. So I don't know more about your issue, please describe it more in details, first I need make sure if it's the NetworkManager's bug. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Sorry, I should have responded sooner.

I've also been reconstructing my wife's computer. When, again, I missed whatever step allows us to set the computer's name, I went back and first changed the network management from NetworkManager to ifup. The change then went smoothly. As far as I know, I still can't change the name when NetworkManager is active. This is what Lars Mueller felt deserved a bug report.

So please take some screen-shot might be a good way to describe your issue. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
