Heres a solution note strictly the oldname should be ^HOSTNNAME=hostname but
im lazy :-)
newhostname="steffi"
sed 's/HOSTNAME=hostname/HOSTNAME=steffi/g' /etc/hostconfig
#or
sed "s/HOSTNAME=hostname/HOSTNAME=${newhostname}/g" /etc/hostconfig
the file /etc/hostconfig contains
#
# -AUTOMATIC- Configure automatically
# -YES- Turn a feature on
# -NO- Leave a feature off or do not configure
#
HOSTNAME=hostname
INETADDR=#########
ROUTER=-NO-
IPNETMASK=
IPBROADCAST=-AUTOMATIC-
NETMASTER=-YES-
YPDOMAIN=-NO-
TIME=-AUTOMATIC-
#NOte the output is only to standard output you have to do something like
save oldhostconfig
sed blablabla > newhostconfig
cp newhostconfig to hostconfig etc etc
Hope this helps, any discounts on hardware??? :-))))))))
