How to determine Server Name in Linux

[Off]

I know the default value is 'localhost' but I want the real network name. How can I determine the network name of my server inside of a Linux from an SSH command prompt?

Do:

# cat /etc/hosts

Which should give you the host name.

Can't you also connect to a network share and see it? Or do a reverse resolve?

Doesn't Linux has something like 'localhost'??

[Off]

I know localhost, all computers (Win, Mac, Linux) have localhost which equals 127.0.0.1. I need the fully qualified host name.

Have you tried hostname?

$ hostname
