Dear LazyWeb,
Can anyone tell me how to change the hostname on my PowerBook (or any OS X machine). I’ve come up with a new host naming scheme and can’t figure it out in my vast spare time…

The hostname on your PB? I think it’s pretty easy:
1. Go to System Preferences.
2. Select the Sharing icon.
3. Put your computer’s new name in the Computer Name box at the top of the window.
I think that’s all I did… I may have done something on the command line too; I’ll have to check.
