I have installed Redhat 8.0 and all went well. I included in the install KDE as well as gnome.

My first question is how do I change it so that KDE is my default shell. I am stuck with gnome at the moment and want to be able to play with both.


My second question is: when I did the install I dont remember being asked for a host name. Is there one? if so how do I change it?

Thanks for any help given.

Anyone....

I was thinking this was supposed to be getting easier....

Right I now know how to set the host name when I install, but does anyone know how to change it once Redhat is setup?

Cheers

With Gnome/KDE Switching, redhat probably has a little app that will switch them, or maby you could do it through linuxconf.


For your hostname, use a text editor and edit /etc/hostname.

Both of these, with a stock install, should be able to be changed via linuxconf
