Not sure about everyone else, but I always put my hostname in /etc/hosts. Maybe that's from years of not always having DNS available back when the earth was cooling.

I see that I couldn't previously find it with systemctl because it is a "static" service, neither enabled nor disabled. What is

Greetings everyone. I have some CentOS 7 VMs running on the system for which I just made the inquiry about the kworker problem, and I was able to institute immediate change of hostname by updating the /etc/hostname file. I have network manager running on the host, as well, and it also has the name populated in this file. When I make the change in /etc/hostname, it takes immediate effect, and

I have a file /etc/sysconfig/network and in the file is cat /etc/sysconfig/network # Created by anaconda HOSTNAME=zotac_c7.msgnet.com [root at localhost ~]# I rebooted and the prompt is still localhost ? What is the new thing in CentOS 7 to set the host name such that then the prompt is correct also? Thanks Jerry

Hai Viktor,   Yes, i did keep that in mind that it was an upgrade, that exact why im responding. ;-)   If in the base  /etc/hostname, /etc/nsswitch.conf and /etc/resolv.conf or systemd  cointains wrong settings, you might inherit these. So it might be that a previous samba was accepting these settings, but a latest samba not. Or a previous systemd version accepted these and a newer not..  

Hi, Our local school has a 100 % Slackware Linux network with two servers and 14 desktop clients. The main server is running Dnsmasq, and he's providing static IP addresses to the desktop clients. Hostnames are also managed centrally. All client machines only have this in /etc/hosts: 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost And in /etc/HOSTNAME: localhost.localdomain The hostname

Hi, For the last ten years or so, I've defined the short hostname in /etc/hostname and the FQDN in /etc/hosts. Now I wanted to double-check this information, which eventually led me to this page: * https://serverfault.com/questions/331936/setting-the-hostname-fqdn-or-short-name Now I admit I'm even more confused than before. Is there some reliable piece of information on this subject

I am having trouble locating examples of how to use doveadm backup. All the examples I see are for sync. I simply want to create a backup to a network volume of the email server's vmail folders. The goal here is to have a reasonably current backup should the main drive on the email server go south. We currently authenticate our users from a mysql database. User?s mailboxes are stored as

Does Centos 7 use /etc/sysconfig/network or is this replaced by some systemctl set of commands. For example I know to set my host name with: hostnamectl set-hostname nevia.htt-consult.com But I don't know if this is the same as cat <<EOF>/etc/sysconfig/network || exit 1 NETWORKING=yes HOSTNAME=nevia.htt-consult.com EOF

Hello, I found different ways to define the hostname ... this HOSTNAME="host.domain.tld" or this: HOSTNAME="host" DOMAIN="domain.tld" what is the correct way? Thanks, Walter

Hi all, I've recently started using NetworkManger service and nmcli tool, I like it much better than the old network service and manually modifying network scripts. I've seen many online questions on how to disable NetworkManger but I have the opposite question! I am wondering if it be OK to disable network service altogether and just use NetworkManger for configuring and managing Ethernet
