Ubuntu VMWare networking

[Steevo38]

Hi All,

Pulling (what's left) of my hair out here.


I have copied a virtual machine so I can run two instances of Ubuntu in VMWare.
How can I change the "name" of the second install so that I can see both as separate network machines? Don't really want to go through the install from scratch.

Thanks for any help given.

change the /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname files.
