How to change the full host and domain name on OS X Leopard...

I recently bought an iMac, and I'm trying to configure it for my network. The question I have is, how can I change the host name and domain name from Skuld.local to skuld.tolharadys.net?
After mucking around with a few searches on Google, I've gotten the domain name to stick since running domainname returns tolharadys.net. Also I can change the hostname as reported by 'hostname' temporarily by running 'hostname skuld.tolharadys.net' in Terminal.app. However, this isn't persistent after reboots. Ideas are welcome.

You would need a DNS server on your network configured to answer authoritatively for that particular subdomain.

  • Server host and domain name have changed, which files do I edit?

    I just changed my Linux box server name and host name. I am going to edit the:
    tnsnames.ora
    sqlnet.ora
    listener.ora
    files to reflect the new host and domain name, are these the only files I need to edit?

  • How to change the font size and style on run time

    dear all
    i try to change the font style and font size on runtime. I did the following:
    1- i created an item(:font_size) in which i will write the size of the font for the the other item ('customer_name')
    2 on the post_change trigger for 'font_size' i write this code
    SET_ITEM_PROPERTY('customer_name',FONT_size,(:font_size);
    i write 12 then then font size changed , then i write 18 , the size does not change. and when i write any value , no change happens. I do not know why
    the second problem is how to change the font style
    i made three checkbooks (bold,italic,underline)
    on the trugger when_checkbox_checked i write
         IF :BOLD = 'B' THEN
         SET_ITEM_PROPERTY('N_SAMPLE',FONT_STYLE,'BOLD');
         ELSE
    SET_ITEM_PROPERTY('N_SAMPLE',FONT_STYLE,'REGULAR');
         END IF;     
    no change happend at all.
    please help

    Hi friend,
    it's a really really strange tip... May be it's a Forms bug? I've tried with set_item_property..and.. you're right, it doesn't work..
    So.. you can try making this:
    - create a visual attribute with an specific font size....
    - use the
    SET_ITEM_INSTANCE_PROPERTY('block.item',CURRENT_RECORD,VISUAL_ATTRIBUTE,'you_visual_attribute');
    and call it from psot-change....
    It works
    Hope it helps,
    Jose.

  • How to change the master page and theme dynamically in sharepoint2013 anonymous site

    hi
    I have to change the master page and theme dynamically in sharepoint2013 anonymous site. i have to show one master page to authenticated user  another master page to anonymous user through code
    Srinivas

    Hi Srinivas,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to change the master page and theme dynamically based on the anonymous users or authenticated users.
    Per my knowledge, there is not an OOB way to change the master page and theme dynamically.
    SharePoint is based on Asp.net, as we know Asp.Net request processing is based on pipeline model, so we can delevlop a custom HttpModule to dynamic change the master page based on current logon user profile(using SP Object Model to get).
    Another solution could be to use the SecurityTrimmed control that injects the CSS depending on global user permissions, more information, please refer to
    it.

  • Need Help on How to Change The Encryption Key and or Change security settings

    Hello, i just installed the wireless router and i would like to know how i can change the encryption key or change the security settings (i want it so you do not have to answer it with a password). Thank you in advance.
    Message Edited by DARK_MARIO on 01-06-200706:10 PM

    Hi…
    In order to change the wireless settings of your router you need to login into the router configuration page. Open your internet explorer browser…in the address bar type http://192.168.1.1 ( Default IP address). Leave the username field balnk……type admin as password (If you have not changed the router password). When the setup page loads fully…..click on the tab that says wireless. Just below the main tab wireless ….click on the sub tab that says wireless security. You can Change the wireless security settings here. After the changes are made click on save settings.

  • How can I override the DNS Servers and Domain Name used by my Airport Time Capsule?

    The defaults picked up from my ISP's DHCP are to use the ISP's DNS servers and ISP's domain. I do not want this.
    With my prior router I set the DNS servers to Google's Public DNS (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) and my domain to either "bannister.us" (which I own) or "bannister.home". I do not want simple names resolving to some ISP default. (Yes, I know exactly what this does.)
    In the Apple AIrport Utility (version 6.3.2) the fields for DNS and Domain do not allow editing. (Why??)
    Is there some way to override this?

    Unfortunately not one that will work with the latest version TC.
    The way around it is to use a different router.. It can be a very simple router.. I usually recommend units like the TP-Link WDR3600 as they take good third party firmware like gargoyle, openwrt, dd-wrt.. ie they have real controls and beyond that a proper Linux firmware with command line interface.
    You can then change the TC over to static IP. It will not be the router.. but it will effectively become the local dhcp server.
    I have adsl so I cannot reproduce your system.. I have a bridged modem.. a router.. AC66U.. and a TC.. but the TC is not in bridge.. it is in static IP mode.
    Let me demonstrate.
    By setting a range on the main router from 1-199 (leave a space.. ) so set the TC to 192.168.2.201 and then you can set DNS and domain as you like. Set the dhcp range (leave a space) you could use 203-253.. then I use the main router as 254.
    It is brilliant.. all computers behind the TC receive the IP from the TC with whatever IP and dns (and domain although I haven't changed it).. Effectively the TC works as its own dhcp device.. but is merely a secondary dhcp server to the main unit.
    (This gives me netflix which is why I do it.. from well outside the US).
    It may be of use.
    Why leave a space.. well it helps it to work.. I have not tested it but another person reported issues and found leaving a space .. ie last ip in the router.. 199, static ip 201.. first dhcp 203 (i used 205 to help me keep count!!). worked.. I have not tried to reproduce the problem.. so I reproduce the solution.. it might be like sheep jumping over the fence.. even if the fence was removed the sheep keep jumping over at the same place. Just say bahhh and do likewise.

  • Host and domain name for http on abap server 7.4 ?

    Hi, I've just setup the NW7.4 on HANA CAL system and am trying to execute some web dynpro apps but they fail as they always launch with a hostname of http://abapci.dummy.nodomain:50000.
    How do I go about changing the system so that web dynpro apps will launch with the correct AWS instance external IP address..? i.e. they should launch with:
    http://http://ec2-54-xxx-yyy-zzz.ap-southeast-2.compute.amazonaws.com:50000/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/configure_application
    I've been googling the options and have come across the RZ11 parameter SAPLOCALHOSTFULL but not sure if that will work or is the best way. Trying to change the url in txn SMICM doesn't work either.
    Thx.

    You are right, I'm also not doing this manually :-) I'm using a shell script to replace all necessary parameters. If you still want to test the updated hostname variant, you can do the following as root using ssh:
    su -c "stopsap r3" -l a4hadm (stop all instances)
    /etc/init.d/sapinit stop (stop all remaining services)
    ./updateHostname abapci dummy.nodomain yourhostname yourdomain.com (run the attached script)
    /etc/init.d/sapinit start (start all services)
    su -c "startsap r3" -l a4hadm (wait until HANA is up and start all instances)
