In /rtc/rc.conf add a line like this: hostname=host.network.net If you are running network services such as DNS, etc. you may need to change it in those configuration files as well.

Re: How do I change hostname in freebsd?
Hi Matt, As root, type hostname new hostname, and the hostname will be changed immediately. To make this change permanent across reboots, edit the file '/etc/rc.conf', and add the following line: hostname=new.host.name The '/etc/rc.conf' file is described here: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/configtuning-core-configuration.html -Andy. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Generally, to persist across reboots, you set something like hostname=hostname.domain.tld in /etc/rc.conf.
