...... The machine's configuration information is set up in its
/etc and /var files.
FILES
/etc/.UNCONFIGURED
/etc/nodename
/etc/hostname.??[0-9]
/etc/default/init
/etc/defaultdomain
/etc/passwd password file. See passwd(4).
/etc/shadow shadow password file. See sha-
dow(4).
/etc/inet/hosts
/etc/inet/netmasks
/etc/net/*/hosts
/var/nis/NIS_COLD_START
/var/yp/aliases
/var/yp/binding/*/ypserver
/etc/.sysIDtool.state
It's not clear if sysidtool or admintool will let you change the hostname.
sys-unconfig will remove all network configuration info (hostname, ip address etc.) to enable you to reenter it if you want to completely change the network config
