Usual host name locations are
$ cat /etc/sysconfig/network NETWORKING_IPV6=no # speedup DNS lookups NOZEROCONF=yes # no doze lookups needed NEEDHOSTNAME=no # I'll use my own hostname NETWORKING=yes HOSTNAME=wm81.home.test <===================== sets it on boot $ head -2 /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost 192.168.1.131 wm81.home.test wm81 <======== used for look ups $ hostname wm81.home.test |

After you change the hostname, you'll have to delete some files, before
Xorg will start. I don't remember for sure, which files have to be deleted, but I think it's ... ~/.DCOP* ~/.ICEauthority ~/.Xauthority After you delete the files, the next time you startx, they will be recreated, with the new hostname in them.
