From the man pages of theses commands and the trial and error method, I've found that the correct way to configure a hostname, for example foo.bar.net is the following: /etc/hosts: 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx foo.bar.net foo alias1...alias_n You have an entry in /etc/sysconfig/network HOSTNAME=foo And finally, if you want to update the hostname without rebooting, you should also use the hostname command.
