Thanks. For posterity then, anyone who unwisely wishes to give up the hunt and use this hack, one solution is to add this line to /etc/rc.conf:
local_startup="/usr/local/etc/rc.d /usr/X11R6/etc/rc.d /usr/local/etc/rc.after_everything.d" Then create the directory /usr/local/etc/rc.after_everything.d (same permissions as /usr/local/etc/rc.d) and put a file named hostname.sh in that directory with this content: #!/bin/sh /bin/hostname your_hostname_here Make the file executable. -Mike On 5/17/07, Robert Huff <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

If I add a line like "/bin/hostname www.mydomain.com" to > /etc/rc.local should this force the hostname change? Start with "man rc.d".
