I am sorry that I've tried but it don't work
Hi,
To change your system name on a redhat or a mandrake, one of the way that you can use is to edit the file /etc/sysconfig/network, you just have to change or add the following line : HOSTNAME=mycomputername.ab
To know your runlevel the "runlevel" command should work on at least mandrake and redhat.
Hope this help.
Bye
PS : root@abc.com is an e-mail address and will depend the way you configure your e-mail software. Basically, with the above configuration the address of the user root on this machine will be root@mycomputername.abc.co

Hi,
It' difficult for me to tell you what is wrong, I don't have enough informations. You should take a look in the logs of the system and/or the application e.g. /var/log/messages and/or /var/log/httpd/error_log you should have more informations in this files. You can also do a manual start from a comand line if you use the command "apachectl start".
Anyway, I suspect that there is maybe a configuration problem with httpd.conf or maybe the application cannot bind on port 80.
Hope this help.

Thank you very much!
u can use the runlevel command which tells u ur current runlevel.
As for changing hostname u can try editing the /etc/rc.sysconfig file and changing HOSTNAME=`/bin/hostname`. lemme know if this works. ull need to restart.
