[ale] setting the system name with potato.

[ChrisColeman at mail.clayton.edu (ChrisColeman at mail.clayton.edu)]

Check to see if there is a directory name /etc/sysconfig. If so, there is a
file called network that contains a setting called HOSTNAME. Edit the file
and change the name.

At least this is the case with Red Hat.

OK, 

	Well, I haven't used redhat in a while so I could be
wrong. However this is strange, etc/hostname is right but I get the wrong
hostname setting everytime I reboot.

Thanks
