1. Change the hostname in /etc/sysconfig/network 2. Generally it's good to make sure the hostname is in /etc/hosts 3. Make the changes take affect, either reboot (easiest way if you're logged in remotely), restart networking (simple if it's a local box) or using the hostname command. Rebooting is however the safest option, some stuff such as X-windows doesn't like the hostname changing while it's running.
