hey guys,

  I setup a FreeBSD 8.2 box to server as an LDAP server. I forgot that
I had a TLS cert with a different hostname than the one I selected. So
I edited /etc/rc.conf to change the name there

defaultrouter="192.168.1.1"
hostname="LBSD2.summitnjhome.com"  ##<  -- used to be LBSD1.summitnjhome.com
ifconfig_bge0="inet 192.168.1.44  netmask 255.255.255.0"
nfs_client_enable="YES"
sshd_enable="YES"
named_enable="YES"
slapd_enable="YES"


And then edited /etc/hosts

::1                     localhost localhost.summitnjhome.com
127.0.0.1               localhost localhost.summitnjhome.com
192.168.1.44            LBSD2.summitnjhome.com LBSD2 ##<-- used to be
LBSD1.summitnjhome.com
192.168.1.44            LBSD2.summitnjhome.com.  ##<<-- Same

then i restarted the network

LBSD2# /etc/rc.d/netif restart

        status: no carrier


However when I issue the hostname -f command it does not reflect the
change. It doesn't even show the fqdn

LBSD2# hostname -f
LBSD2

What am I doing wrong, here?


thanks

Try typing the command:

# hostname LBSD2.summitnjhome.com
