CANNOT... HOST NAME is an error message from Apache, isn't it? If it is,
and I'm assuming you are running a web server, then just edit
/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf and look for this section:
--
# ServerName allows you to set a host name which is sent back to clients for
# your server if it's different than the one the program would get (i.e. use
# "www" instead of the host's real name).
#
# Note: You cannot just invent host names and hope they work. The name you
# define here must be a valid DNS name for your host. If you don't understand
# this, ask your network administrator.
#ServerName new.host.name
--
Take the # off the "ServerName" part and put your host name there.
Alternatively, if you don't need to run a Web server, just go into
/etc/rc.d/rc3.d (assuming you're starting in runlevel 3, the default),
find the symlink "S85httpd", and disable the web server startup by either
deleting it or changing it to "D85httpd" (I like the second because if I
change my mind and decide to start the server at boot time I can just
change the "D" back to an "S"). Oh, you can also use the GUI tool tksysv
to shut things off, if you prefer.
