<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>The <filename>/etc/hostname</filename> file configures the
|
|
name of the local system that is set during boot using the
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sethostname</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
system call. It should contain a single newline-terminated
|
|
hostname string. Comments (lines starting with a `#') are ignored.
|
|
The hostname may be a free-form string up to 64 characters in length;
|
|
however, it is recommended that it consists only of 7-bit ASCII lower-case
|
|
characters and no spaces or dots, and limits itself to the format allowed
|
|
for DNS domain name labels, even though this is not a strict
|
|
requirement.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>You may use
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>hostnamectl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
to change the value of this file during runtime from the command
|
|
line. Use
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-firstboot</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
to initialize it on mounted (but not booted) system images.</para>
