Sounds like you don't have hostname changed in all the files it appears in.

Here, I always check the following files:

/etc/hosts
/etc/sysconfig/network
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcg-eth0

I used to always check these when I was using a direct dial-up. Now that I'm 
using a cable-modem service, I don't have to have hostname in all these 
places. You might want to check them. :-)
