setnodename(1)        UNIX System V(Essential Utilities)         setnodename(1)


NAME
      setnodename - node name change utility

SYNOPSIS
      setnodename [ -i ] [ -s ] [ -x ] [ -r <root> ] [ -o <output> ]
      setnodename <  name=value >  ...

DESCRIPTION
      setnodename changes your system's node name and does the network setup.
      Executing the program with no options will bring up an interactive menu
      program that prompts you for the information.


OPTIONS
      -x    print debugging messages

      <name=value>
            This option allows you to change your systems value without using
            the menu interface. The name options that can be used are:
            HOSTNAME for the name you want to call your machine.
            HOSTADDR for the ip address of your machine.
            DOMAIN for your network domain name.
            NAMESERVER for your domain nameserver's ip address.
            NETMASK if you are using a subnet this is for the net mask you are
            using.
            GATEWAY if you are using a nameserver and a subnet this is the name
            of your subnet router.
            GATEADDR if you are using subnets this is the ip address of your
            subnet router.

      The following options are used during our network install
            procedure. These options are not normally used from the command
            line.

      -i    installation: requires "pkgserver", etc...

      -o<output>
            write results into a file.

      -r    < root > specify the root of the file system to change

      -s    silent (don't prompt for updates)
