Hi,
I am installing Solaris 11.3 as a local system using no remote connections.
The installer asks for a computer name or would be used as the hostname.
Can I select any name ? Like solaris 11 or localhost ?
I noticed this is added into the /etc.hosts file later.
ie example. localhost
Will this work for app on my computer that connects using a web browser ?
Or do I need to edit etc file /etc/file after installing ?
Thanks
