> Edit /etc/sysconfig/network, and set your host name so something. Thanks, alone this didn't work intially, I was still receiving a message that the hostname could not be found. But after some experimentation I was able to configure other network files (with a vague understanding of what I was doing) so that my hostname was recognized without adding anything to /etc/hosts. However, after that was done I began toying with linuxconf and was later unable to start my system without a kernel panic. I reinstalled preserving my /home partition, only now RH doesn't recognize my ethernet card, ifcfg-eth0 doesn't even exist. ifconfig reveals only lo. In the past, getting online was simply a matter of adding my dhcp_hostname (ie cdXXXXX-x) to ifcfg-eth0.
