I believe you might be missing the "-w" that tells sysctl to "write" this value. I would use "sysctl -w kernel.hostname=<new_hostname>" .. alternatively, you could type "hostname <new_hostname>" and re-login. Either way, the HOSTNAME paramater in /etc/sysconfig/network must be changed as well. Yup I missed the -w switch. Sorry for that
