Hi all,
Today when I logged into my Debian 9.2 VM I noticed that the hostname
has changed to the first block of the IP address I was accessing this VM
from last:
root@83:~#
The hostname is displayed by the PS* variables.
https://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/howto-linux-unix-bash-shell-setup-prompt.html
"hostname" command was returning the full IP address 83.xxx.xxx.xxx
Cat /etc/hostname was still showing the correct name.
After apt-get update, ap-get upgrade (to 9.3) and reboot things went
back to normal.
Is it a known bug?
Has anybody seen anything like this before?
For some reasons your hostname was change (dhcp).
This isn't a bug! :)
