That file is overwritten each boot from the info
in the correct config file. All the RedHat GUI
front ends simply edit text files that can be hand
edited, and the documentation for these files is
found in the initscripts package, under (you
guessed it), /usr/share/doc/initscripts-6.67/,
in this case, specifically, in sysconfig.txt
Even more particularly, that file says, in part:
/etc/sysconfig/network:
NETWORKING=yes|no
HOSTNAME=<fqdn by default, but whatever hostname you want>
That should help, not only with hostname setting,
but with anything else you need to set up. Just
search in that file for what you need. For
instance, do:
grep -5in HOSTNAME /usr/share/doc/initscripts-*/sysconfig.txt

People buy MicroShaft for compatibility, but get incompatibility and
instability instead. This is award winning "innovation". Find
