Hello All,
I have recently switched my computer LAb to Trisquel from windows after using trisquel for a year. I have cloned all my machines. They all have the same device name - which I planned on changing after I cloned them. I do not see where I can change this - if I even can. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I have done a search and I have not found anything.

I believe that information is in two files: /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts.

@dpatac: Be more specific about "devicename" :)
Do you mean the hostname of the system / VM ?
