I'm a bit new to this, but here goes. My computer is a MacBook Pro
with Mac OS X 10.4.11, I am not using the bundled Apach 1.3 server,
it has not been activated prior to this. I installed Apache 2.2.6
(as well as PHP and MySQL...) through MacPorts (DarwinPorts) and it
has been working flawlessly. It is when I attempt the following I
can't make it work.
I have a fancy prompt in Terminal, which displays
"[EMAIL PROTECTED]>", however, I would like the hostname to be the
computer name, i.e. I want it to look like "[EMAIL PROTECTED]>", because
the current hostname is "host-xx-xxx-xx-xxx" which can clutter up
the screen a bit too much for me. Now this I solved by typing...
> sudo hostname laptop
...but after that, I can't seem to start Apache. If I change it
back to "host-xx-xxx-xx-xxx", all is well. [...]
On my Tiger system, start System Preferences -> Sharing (which is in
the tab Internet & Network) and set your hostname there. The bare
Unix 'hostname' command isn't the only place where MacOSX keeps the
name of the system. The Preferences pane updates all.
Hope this helps,
