Re: how do the compiler find a xxx.h file (using make)

if the .h file is in a non-standard dir, the easiest way to make the build process find it is probably like this: CPPFLAGS='-I/usr/lib/qt-3.0.5/include' ./configure (with whatever dir is appropriate, of course, that's where qthread.h is for me on rh8.0) then continue the make normally from

that's likely all you need to change. /etc/HOSTNAME is actually generated on boot (by rc.sysinit?) from /etc/sysconfig/network and exists just for compatability with applications that may use it (redhat itself doesn't, to the best of my knowledge). as root you can use the hostname command with
