Generally speaking, give a device a hostname that's *unique* and useful for you to know what it is. You could call it fred, storage, server, basement, blackbox, five, whatever. But I'd avoid giving it the same name as anything else (i.e. not nfs, cifs, samba, smb, etc). At one stage I had a penchant for giving Windows PCs names related to disasters. ;-) It seemed appropriate. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1127.13.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Jun 23 15:46:38 UTC 2020 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
