Yup, that's where the parameters are set, but I was after where the hostname is actually set (i.e. /etc/sysconfig/network is actually read for the first time). Should've written it more clearly, sorry. However, I've found it, shortly after I hut 'send' (DOH!): It's in /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit That explains why it doesn't work, as rc.sysinit runs before any of the "level" scripts. Hence, short of changing rc.sysinit (which I don't really like), the only solution seems to be to re-set the hostname in either my script or in rc.local.
