- hostname [<hostname>]

- Display or set the local host name. By convention this should be
- the same as the host's primary domain name. This string is used
- only in the greeting messages of the various network servers;
- note that it does NOT set the system's IP address.
-
- If <hostname> is the same as an <interface> defined in an
- 'attach' command, this command will search for a CNAME domain
- resource record which corresponds to the IP address of the
- <interface>.
