I need a list of files to rename a Solaris server.  I have modified
the /etc/hosts, /etc/hostname.hme1 and it still brings back the
original name after reboot.

Any help would be a appreciated.

Thanks,
Eric

/etc/nodename in particular, but you should see the list of files at the
end of the man page sys-unconfig(1M).

Just edit the following files and substitute each occurrence of the old
hostname with the new one.
/etc/hosts
/etc/nodename
/etc/hostname.xxn
(xxn = network interface, such as hme0)

/etc/net/ticlts/hosts
/etc/net/ticots/hosts
/etc/net/ticotsord/hosts
/etc/inet/ipnodes
(if this file exists and if a hostname entry exists)
