Use hostnamectl, assuming your systemd version is new enough:
http://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/hostnamectl.html
Thanks for the suggestion, but unfortunately this doesn't seem to work:
$ hostnamectl set-hostname korath.my.domain.com
$ cat /etc/hostname
korathmydomaincom
$ pacman -Qi systemd | grep Ver
Version : 197-4
At a suggestion from my distro's discussion forum, manually editing
/etc/hostname and putting the FQDN back in there works. So I'm not sure
whether this is a bug in hostnamectl or whether editing /etc/hostname is still
the preferred way to set a machine's FQDN.
Also for the record the "localhost.localdomain" was because my short hostname
was listed against 127.0.0.1 in /etc/hosts. Removing that fixed that issue.
Thanks,
Adam.
