** Changed in: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu)
Status: Fix Released => Triaged
** Description changed:
1a. Run sudo gnome-control-center, or...
- 1b. Save the gnome-control-center.pkla from
https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-desktop/gnome-control-center/ubuntu/revision/554
to /var/lib/polkit-1/localauthority/10-vendor.d/ and then run
gnome-control-center as an admin user
+ 1b. Save the gnome-control-center.pkla from
https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-desktop/gnome-control-center/ubuntu/revision/556
to /var/lib/polkit-1/localauthority/10-vendor.d/ and then run
gnome-control-center as an admin user
2. Enter the Details panel
3. The "Device name" (hostname) text field should be editable; change the
text to something else.
4. The hostname is updated instantly which can be verified by looking in
/etc/hostname. However /etc/hosts/ is not updated.
The hostnamed documentation at
http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/hostnamed says
"To properly handle name lookups with changing local hostnames without having
to edit /etc/hosts for them we recommend using hostnamed in combination with
nss-myhostname: http://0pointer.de/lennart/projects/nss-myhostname/ "
Without /etc/hosts being handled correctly, the hostnamed integration is
only half-working which is why I didn't upload revision 554 to Raring
itself yet.
