- configures the name of the local system that is set
- during boot using the
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sethostname</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum></citerefentry>
- system call. It should contain a single
- newline-terminated hostname string. The
- hostname may be a free-form string up to 64 characters
- in length; however, it is recommended that it consists
- only of 7-bit ASCII lower-case characters and no spaces or dots,
- and limits itself to the format allowed for DNS domain
- name labels, even though this is not a
