This is to manually change the system so it understands the hosts name and fqdn or the host.

 

1- Edit the hosts file

  • sudo nano /etc/hosts
  • change the second 127.0.0.1 hostname to 127.0.0.1 name.domain.com name
  • close and save the file

2- Edit the hostname file

  • sudo nano /etc/hostname
  • remove the single line of text and replace it with just the host name (without the domain.com)

 

3- Reboot your system
