CLOSED: Fedora 21 install hostname: localhost.localdomain

Postby thekiwi » Fri Sep 18, 2015 5:44 am

A quick question regarding the hostname on Fedora 21 install for Amahi 8.

I see that hostname is automatically populated with localhost.localdomain, but should this be changed to localhost."my Home Domain" selected when registering an Amahi account? I guess as default it might be localhost.amahi.net. Is that right?

Are there any issues changing the hostname during Fedora installation? Should it be left as localhost.localdomain? Is there any impact on an app if it is changed to my Home Domain (thinking of Plex)?

Alternatively, should I just leave it as is?

Thanks!

We recommend you not change the hostname during installation. This will ensure the best success of installation of Fedora 21 and Amahi 8.

If you want to change it after Amahi 8 is installed and working, that's up to you.
