Part of the job of the localnet script is setting the
system's hostname. This needs to be configured in the /etc/sysconfig/network file.
Create the /etc/sysconfig/network file
and enter a hostname by running:
echo "HOSTNAME=<lfs>" > /etc/sysconfig/network
<lfs> needs to be
replaced with the name given to the computer. Do not enter the Fully
Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) here. That information is put in the
/etc/hosts file.
