But again the /etc/hostname file will not be touched. If the static hostname is localhost the Transient hostname is used. The static hostname will not be touched.īy default systemd/hostnamectl will ignore the Transient hostname if a valid static hostname in /etc/hostname is found.

NM and systemd-netweorkd will only update the Transient hostname with the value receiving from the DHCP server. If possible remove the /etc/hostname file, without network the fallback hostname is used and it is hardcoded in systemd. Sure wish we still lived in the day of, do one thing and to do it well.ĭid you set up a static hostname in /etc/hostname ? It should be empty if you want to use the Transient hostname or containing localhost. I have modified nf only to see “warnings” in systemctl that the change to the DHCP name was blocked due to “systemd security” and I should use sethostname or hostnamectl (I don’t recall which for sure, atm).Īnyone have clues as to what I need to change? Accepting the hostname assigned by DHCP should be the default… but it is not or it does not function properly or one of the other systemd services is resetting it.

I have tried setting the name to localhost in the /etc/hostname which should be overwritten by the DHCP name. I have found networkd, hostnamed, and NetworkManager all capable of setting the hostname and I think they do… it just ends up with whatever is in /etc/hostname.

However, I can not make this machine keep the machine name as it is assigned via DHCP. I have a client which obtains an IP via DHCP. I have been fighting with this and I am ready to punch this machine.
