At all. I have a humble collection of about 30 Fedora machines in my business; four of them are F9 and the rest are earlier versions. I have no Linux laptops at all; nearly all of the several hundred boxes that I have managed are of this simple configuration. NM does not work in this situation; the hostname never gets set.I've probably misunderstood completely, but doesn't it get the hostname from /etc/sysconfig/network ?
Yes but at install time anaconda fills this using NM. This means you can get it right with a manual post install configuration.
And anyhow since F9 anaconda starts NM service by default. So to use network service again you always have to manually alter the anaconda result.
Koos.
