systemd-hostnamed.service is a system service that may be used to
change the system's hostname and related machine metadata from user
programs. It is automatically activated on request and terminates
itself when unused.
It currently offers access to five variables:
· The current hostname (Example: "dhcp-192-168-47-11")
· The static (configured) hostname (Example: "lennarts-computer")
· The pretty hostname (Example: "Lennart's Computer")
· A suitable icon name for the local host (Example:
"computer-laptop")
· A chassis type (Example: "tablet")
The tool hostnamectl(1) is a command line client to this service.
See org.freedesktop.hostname1(5) and org.freedesktop.LogControl1(5)
for a description of the D-Bus API.
