The hostname is set at boot time from the "HOSTNAME=" parameter in
/etc/sysconfig/network.  Edit that file and reboot.  Make sure that
you also have that hostname in /etc/hosts associated with the 127.0.0.1
address if it doesn't have a fixed IP:

     127.0.0.1	localhost localhost.localdomain myhost.mydomain.com
