Changing hostname in AmigaOS 4.1 Update 6
« on: July 11, 2014, 09:45:16 AM »
I've tried changing the 'Name' under 'Hosts' in Internet Preferences as well as adding an id =whatevername field to DEVS:/NetInterfaces/VIA-RHINE. It's still stuck as 'localhost'.

If it sheds more light, it's also unable to resolve hostnames of other machines such as 'mymacmini.local', says they're unknown.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks

It shows the hostname I set in Internet Prefs.
