Re: [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 ?)

Would not worry about it - the domain "cobaltmicro.com" belongs to Cobalt.

See: http://www.getonline.co.uk/aspx-bin/whois.aspx?whois=cobaltmicro.com

It's probably the name of the host they used to create the image or a temporary host name given to the machine while it had its software installed.

Thanks...
