I did a big system update yesterday ( 52 pkgs ), incl Net-tools Dhcpcd , |
| 2 |
& on restarting today found that hostname is not being set : |
| 3 |
|
| 4 |
root:505 etc> echo $HOSTNAME |
| 5 |
(none) |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
Previously it was 'localhost'. |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
The problem seems to be in /etc/init.d/hostname , |
| 10 |
as the init process reports : |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
Setting hostname to localhost ... |
| 13 |
/etc/init.d/hostname: line 24: hostname command not found |
| 14 |
*Failed to set the hostname [!!] |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
I've updated Openrc to the latest testing 0.22.1 , but no change. |
| 17 |
I've also tried permutations of changes to /etc/init.d/hostname . |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
Can anyone offer advice ? |
