    Hi,

    I read that hostname length of hpux 11.i OS could be of maximum 64
    chars. But the preferred length is 8 chars due to the restriction
    imposed by "uname" command as it returns only initial 8 chars of
    hostname.

    Now my question is that how to overcome this problem. Means that if I
    still wish to assign more than 8 chars to hostname, "uname" returning me
    whole hostname instaed of just 8 chars, can I do this? Any patch or any
    other solution?

    Could someone help me?

    Thanks and Regards,

    Manoj
