After cloning a system from the ReferencePlatforms, the following steps need to be done on the new system:

Leopard/Snow Leopard

Set the hostname by opening up Terminal and typing:

scutil --set HostName hostname.domain.tld

replacing hostname.domain.tld with the actual fully qualified domain name.

Fedora/CentOS

Open a terminal window and su - to become root.

Then edit the file /etc/sysconfig/network , changing the hostname to the hosts fully qualified domain name.

Windows XP

Open System Properties and go to Computer Name tab, click on Change and enter the host's hostname there. Then click on 'more settings' to add the hosts domain name to the DNS suffix field.
