How do I update my hostname change with the DNS server?
My machine has a static IP, and I just changed its hostname (to be consistent with other machines). At the terminal, when I do:
hostname
I get what I expect. But I can't ping the machine based on it's hostname. I'm guessing this probably has something to do with the network DNS machines, but I don't have access to them. How can I force the hostname to update on the DNS servers? Is there a broadcast command or something like that available? And does this even sound like the problem?
