-NAME
-----
-hostname - Local host name configuration file
-
-SYNOPSIS
---------
-*/etc/hostname*
-
-DESCRIPTION
------------
-The /etc/hostname file configures the name of the local system that is set during boot. It
-should contain a single newline-terminated host name string. The host name may be a free-form string up to 64 characters in length,
-however it is recommended that it consists only of 7bit 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 strict requirement.
-
-In Arch systems the HOSTNAME variable in /etc/rc.conf is checked for the host name as well, however only as fallback.
-
-HISTORY
--------
-The simple configuration file format of /etc/hostname originates from Debian GNU/Linux.
