Does the change persist across re-boots? man hostname/dnsdomainname says
"When called with one argument or with the --file option, the commands

sudo hostname
that's how I'd do it, rather than manually edit files.

/etc/hos
How do you change the name of a computer. I am running Ubuntu on a
partition. Do I have to change it in windows, or in Ubuntu. I just
discovered I have two computers with the same name.
