I am using my home computer that uses a DHCP. In /etc/rc.conf my hostname is
automatically entered. I realize this is the name of my computer given to me
from my ISP. I purchased my domain kooper.ca. Should I change the hostname
in /etc/rc.conf to hostname=dell.kooper.ca. If not, what would this be
used for? I'm sure I should change it. I am attempting to install qmail
again.
I'm not near a FreeBSD box at the moment, but if you have a look at man
dhclient.conf or man dhcp-options, there is a supersede option that
allows you to use a locally configured option rather than the one specified
by the dhcp server
Cheers,
Rob
