<span id="System-Configuration-1"></span><h3 class="section">1.3 System Configuration</h3>

<p>After you have finished installing some extra packages, you can configure your
system to your liking.
</p>
<span id="Configuring-hostname-_0028recommended_0029"></span><h4 class="subsection">1.3.1 Configuring hostname (recommended)</h4>

<p>You might want to add a hostname, especially in a networked environment. Your
hostname will default to &rsquo;carbslinux&rsquo; unless you set this.
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">$ echo your-hostname &gt; /etc/hostname
</pre></div>

<span id="Setting-up-hosts-file-_0028optional_0029"></span><h4 class="subsection">1.3.2 Setting up hosts file (optional)</h4>

<p>You can edit your /etc/hosts file, which is the static lookup table for host
names. By default, there are two entries for localhost which are OKAY. You can
replace the &rsquo;localhost&rsquo; part of these entries to your hostname.
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">127.0.0.1  localhost.localdomain localhost
::1        localhost.localdomain localhost ip6-localhost
</pre></div>
