xsce distinguishes between hostname (schoolserver) and domain name (defaults to .lan). You can change the second of these no problem in the console. You can override the first in local_vars, but if you do XOs won't automatically find the schoolserver. (I have a machine that I named xsce.lan, which works fine.) The expectation is that if you need multiple schoolservers or need to add to an existing network that you will do it by changing the domain name, so only that is exposed in the console.

The web-admin console does not allow changing this, so I am guessing it will break a few things if I force the issue. What would be a way around this.. 1) Either change the hostname OR 2) Redirect to schoolserver.lan upon entering <my-preferred-addr> in the browser. 1) would be preferred and 2) a backup. Thoughts on how to best do this? Best, Anish
