hostname problem

[E Papantoniou <eenep@sun.leeds.ac.uk>]

Hi all, 

I am having the following problem with the hostname: 

when I login as a normal user I get the message: 

hostname: you must be root to change the host name 

I suspect that I might have messed up with files or permissions without realising it, but I don't know 
where to start looking...any ideas? 

thanks in advance 

Manos
