I can manage to change hostname with yast except when i wish to use
"underscore" in the hostname. Yast simply does not accept it. "name-

Can anyone assist please?
Do you really mean host name or user name? A host name would be
something.domain whereas the format you've used is for an email address.
If you really did mean a domain name, then you need to know that the '_'
character isn't a valid character for use in a domain name, and it
probably why YaST won't accept it.

Yes, I mean hostname. In yast ther is one window to fill in for
hostname and an other for domain name.
