--- Comment #19 from Katarina Machalkova
Changing /etc/hostname or /etc/HOSTNAME *do not* change the hostname!! may be it's in an other file. and the hostname command don't works!
Then please file a separate bug against basesystem (and not YaST, which cannot influence on how 'hostname' command works in any way) and describe how it should work and how it really works instead.
I had also to change network manager to ifup (and have stupidly smppd added when I have no modem) to be able to change the hostname, and after that back again to network manager.
I'm sorry, the fix for this bug did not make it into 11.1 final release (which contains y2-network 2.17.60 only - you need to have 2.17.61 to actually see the fix). Hopefully, it'll be available in Factory soon -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
