Hi up to a few days ago, if I opened a xterm my hostname was as I set it.
ie gb7tf
now and I cant find the file to change, its [EMAIL PROTECTED]
all the files containing the hostname seem OK

Normally, the hostname is in /etc/sysconfig/network. However, it can be overridden by an entry in /etc/sysconfig/networking/ifcfg-*, or /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-*. The dhcp client daemon can overwrite these files, if it receives a hostname from the dhcp server.
