Re: [Q] hostname change: i tried for 83 days. But failed. HELP ME PLEASE !!!

[Fabrizio Carrai <fabrizio.carrai@gmail.com>]

Felix is right, indeed here ".chromebook" would indicates the DOMAIN and not the name of the HOST.

But if you don't expect to use the chromebook in a network with a managed domain, maybe you will not have particular problem. Indeed I never thought to use a "." with the hostname command...

Byung-Hee, if you want to sleep quite and for you it is not very important I would suggest to use "alex-chromebook" or any other name with no dot in.

Happy to have helped you

Fabrizio
