Yet the ethernet works, via dhcp. there is no hostname. No hostname line in /etc/sysconfig/network and of course not in ifcfg-eth0. In /etc/hosts, the system is labeled localhost.localdomain. A new one on me is /etc/hostname that has one line saying localhost.localdomain. Of course I want a specific fqdn for this system, so I need to change all of this the right way.
Of course no GUI; this pogo only has 256Mb memory (not the 'bigger' 512Mb unit). Only ssh access; I don't have the serial port adapter. I do have netconsole setup; but only if the pogo is at a particular IP addr and to nc at a particular IP addr (set up in uboot).
Any insights are appreciated. Do I create an ifcfg-eth0 and how? Is there a tool to properly setup hostname, or do I find all places where it lives and fix it?
I only have a little time to work on this before I head off the first half of next week to yet another meeting.
I think you are asking how to set the hostname....
man hostnamectl
hostname is now stored in /etc/hostname
I meant to send a message that I figured out hostnamectl. Got that.
New experience, as the static? form dropped the dots, so I had to do
that explicitly.
But I also need a real ifcfg-eth0, I think. I want to move off of
dhcp, to static addressing. I also need to fix the IPv6 address with a
specific lower 64 bits other than the MAC. Perhaps it is just a matter
of using system-config-network (or whatever it is now, that system is
off right now) and save the eth0 setup. It is just this is also 'new'
about no ifcfg-eth0 file, even with just using dhcp.
