This command changes the static (standard), transient (dynamic), and pretty (descriptive) hostnames all at once. If you only want to change one type of hostname, you can use the --static, --transient, and --pretty options. Static and transient hostnames can contain letters, numbers, and hyphens only.[2] Run the hostname command to see your new hostname. If the hostname hasn't changed run the command sudo systemctl restart systemd-hostnamed to restart systemd-hostnamed.]
Hello, Peter,
Thank you very much! With this and the suggestion of similar tools by Nik, I believe I have enough information to go on from here.
It's odd that I could not find pages like this when I searched. I probably did not phrase my question just right for DDG, but I have a hard time trying to think like a machine, or to behave like an algorithm.
