Replace newhostname with the hostname you'd like to set. Once you run the command, your Linux hostname will be changed immediately. This command changes the static (standard), transient (dynamic), and pretty (descriptive) hostnames all at once. If you only want to change one type of hostname, you can use the --static, --transient, and --pretty options. Static and transient hostnames can contain letters, numbers, and hyphens only.[2] Run the hostname command to see your new hostname. If the hostname hasn't changed run the command sudo systemctl restart systemd-hostnamed to restart systemd-hostnamed.] Regards, Peter. ____________________________________________________ tde-users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Web mail archive available at https://mail.trinitydesktop.org/mailman3/hyperkitty/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
