has anyone else found that hostname doesnt set correctly in 7.0 / 7.1 
either ?? I can't get it to work anyway ...

typing: "hostname thallophytic" sets it while the machine is running...
but once i reboot it reverts back to localhost.localdomain

i manually editted /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts also but got the same 
result ...
