On some networks, the DHCP provider also provides the name of the computer, or hostname. To specify the hostname, select Manual and type the complete name in the box. The complete hostname includes both the name of the machine and the name of the domain of which it is a member, such as machine1.example.com. The machine name (or "short hostname") is machine1, and the domain name is example.com.

	Valid Hostnames
	You may give your system any name provided that the full hostname is unique. The hostname may include letters, numbers and hyphens.
