+                configures the name of the local system that is set
+                during boot, with the

+                system call. It should contain a single
+                newline-terminated host name string. The
+                host name may be a free-form string up to 64 characters
+                in length, however it is recommended that it consists
+                only of 7bit ASCII characters and no spaces or dots,
+                and limit itself to the format allowed for DNS domain
+                name labels, even though this is not a
+                requirement.</para>
