Not - re to hostname on Mac OSX
Authored by: ubergoonz on Dec 11, '02 12:30:01PM

actually, the file /etc/hostconfig is very much specific to netinfo inherent from the NeXT Operating System.

IMOHO, on Mac OSX, hostname changes should be done via netinfo using the niutil command.

I haven't been able to get my hands on sysadmin docu on OS X to understand how to do the needful change. But once's i've got it. I can uupdate here.

cheeers.
