I'm a relative newbie, although I have installed and used Debian and FreeBSD a number of times but one question still puzzles me - what is the correct way to set up my machines hostname. I am about to install 2.2r5 on a standalone dialup machine and would like to get this basic step right, should I use an imaginary name and FQDN such as <newbie.madeupdomain.org> or should I use my ISPs information <bloodshot.ntlworld.com> or something different? I have RTFM but can't seem to find a simple, straightforward guide to this setup.
