Something I've never been able to figure out. When installing a
new machine, and you come to the Network Configuration dialog,
what do you put in for the Host: and Domain: if it is a machine
on an internal network (ie., 192.168.1.149)? Does it matter?
Just give it a simple hostname and be done
Essentially, the host is the 'name of the machine' if you will. So if
you want, you can name it betty, or uberserver1. It doesn't matter.
For that fact, as far as I really know, nor does the domain matter.
However commonly when naming servers and such, they have corresponding
names and domains so

In short, no, the names do not matter for your internal home network.
I would just add that on your internal network you may literally use any
valid name. I have an office network and several of the boxes run apache,

Hello everyone,
Just was wondering about setting up virtual hosts on NIC cards on my
FreeBSD box.
I read the handbook:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/configtuning-virtual-hosts.html
Seems simple enough, but I seemed to be having a bit of a problem.
For instance, I

Well that depends on what it is, but if you want to just go through
everything you can do this:
# shutdown now
This will put you in single-user mode. Hit enter for the default shell,

What if you are doing this remotely? :)
Any other way to get around that?
Not unless you're connected to another machine and connected to the target
box through a serial console. In this case you're probably better of making
the change manually. What is it you want to reconfigure?
