[cobalt-users] /etc/HOSTNAME



I was looking  hrough the /etc directory on a RAQ4 server and came across
this file /etc/HOSTNAME. Just as I suspected it contained the host name of
my box. I then came across another file /etc/HOSTNAME.OLD It contained the
following text
lease06.sub202.mfg.cobaltmicro.com  (This host name is unknown to me ?)

This seems strange because the server was purchased brand new ?  Can someone
explain the purpose these two files

/etc/HOSTNAME
/etc/HOSTNAME.OLD
