I wanted to change my hostname and so i edited the rc.conf
file and changed my hostname.
After that everything reflected my settings...
Did i do it correctly?
The reason that i am questioning if i did it correctly is that when
i recompiled the kernel because of the ident part it showed my old
e-mail address as the user who compiled it.

thanx,

nat
