Here’s my favorite Linux prompt.
PS1='\[\033[01;32m\]\u@\h\[\033[00m\]:\[\033[01;34m\]\w\[\033[00m\]\$ ' |
Add to end of your .bashrc to make it permanent.
Linux Prompt
hostname
Hostname
If you need to change your system’s hostname, use hostname or hostnamectl commands.
hostname servername
hostnamectl set-hostname servername |
You can add the hostname to these 2 files and reboot.
vi /etc/hostname vi /etc/hosts reboot |
Without a reboot. Add the hostname to these 2 files.
vi /etc/hostname vi /etc/hosts |
And add a hostname entry to 127.0.0.1 in /etc/hosts.
127.0.0.1 servername |
That’s all she wrote.
