Someone correct me, but I believe the name specified in the initscripts is what's proposed to a DHCP server only and would be used by _other_ systems who use that hostname to find the box. It has no bearing on how the Fedora instance identifies itself. IOW, it submits "farkle" to HDCP so someone can ping farkle.mydomain.com, but the system itself could be named "hungadunga". -- Darryl L. Pierce, Sr. Software Engineer @ Red Hat, Inc.
