Typing in this command from the prompt. echo server1.example.com > /etc/hostname /bin/hostname -F /etc/hostname We get this in return -bash: /etc/hostname/bin/hostname: Not a directory.
This are two commands, first type: Code: echo server1.example.com > /etc/hostname hit return, then type: Code: /bin/hostname -F /etc/hostname hit return.
