I'm in the process of setting up a Fedora machine just for use on my in-house lan (not exposed to the internet.)
This seems like a slightly stupid question, but I can't seem to find a definitive answer anywhere: does it matter what I make the hostname?
The default is "localhost.localdomain" - should I leave that, change it to something meaningful, or just set it to something like "fedoramachine" or "bilbo"?
Perfect! Thanks, nik. That's what I thought, but Fedora's prompt caused me to lose confidence. – Electrons_Ahoy – 2009-08-16T03:19:46.807
