    Hi,
     
    Does anybody know why I get this error in the 'rc.log' file -
     
    Setting hostname
    Output from "/sbin/rc1.d/S320hostname start":
    ----------------------------
    Not a terminal
    stty: : Not a typewriter
    stty: : Not a typewriter
            ^[2 ^[2 ^[2 ^[2 ^[2 ^[2 ^[2 ^[2 ^[2
    ^[2 ^[2 ^[2 ^[2 ^[2
            ^[2 ^[2 ^[2 ^[2 ^[2 ^[2
       stty: : Not a typewriter
    stty: : Not a typewriter
    /sbin/rc1.d/S320hostname[44]: NODENAME: Parameter not set.
    logout
    "/sbin/rc1.d/S320hostname start" FAILED

    I can set the hostname manually using 'set_parms hostname' but when I reboot
    the server the hostname fails to get set?
     
    Output from uname command -
     
    # uname -a
    HP-UX unknown B.11.11 U 9000/800 204970790 unlimited-user license
     
    Any ideas?
     
    Cheers
