[Bug 303545] Re: oem-config should also set the host name
Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to look at all reported bugs in a timely manner. There have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time you reported the bug and your problem may have been fixed with some of the updates. It would help us a lot if you could test it on a currently supported Ubuntu version. When you test it and it is still an issue, kindly upload the updated logs by running only once: apport-collect 303545 and any other logs that are relevant for this particular issue. ** Changed in: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete ** Changed in: baltix Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/303545 Title: oem-config should also set the host name To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/303545/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 303545] Re: oem-config should also set the host name
While I agree with your statement I disagree with your logic. I'm not an OEM... I'm an administrator trying to integrate Ubuntu and the lack of of the mentioned feature in oem-config DOES act as an impediment to introduction. Contrary to your statement changing the hostname IS a simple matter but not easy to do with machine imaging. If the OEM is incompetent enough to set the host name on a web server and then run oem-config then let that OEM deal with the consequences. On the other hand, imaging like hardware is so insanely common that it makes sense to offer the capability. It is possible to make a checkbox that offers the option of setting the hostname during the first run after oem-config. -- oem-config should also set the host name https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/303545 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
Re: [Bug 303545] Re: oem-config should also set the host name
I'm not an OEM... I'm an administrator trying to integrate Ubuntu oem-config is probably not the best solution for you. Try the system-imager* packages instead. Contrary to your statement changing the hostname IS a simple matter Try this. . . . Assume a user name of penguin, the first host name is oldname, and the name you want is newname. Set up the machine with oldname as the host name. Change the host name to newname. Reboot. Then execute the following commands: # rgrep oldname /etc /home/penguin/newname.log # find /dev | grep oldname /home/penguin/newname.log # rgrep oldname /boot /home/penguin/newname.log # rgrep oldname /var /home/penguin/newname.log # rgrep oldname /usr/share/ /home/penguin/newname.log Then open /home/penguin/newname.log. If the file is empty, you found everything. If it's not, you overlooked something. On the other hand, imaging like hardware is so insanely common that it makes sense to offer the capability. We have found imaging to be a suboptimal solution in a manufacturing environment, for a variety of reasons. It's cheaper, faster, and more reliable to use oem-config.
