hi,

would changing the HostName (servername) to a completly different domain harm and affect any functions on the server ?

Thanks

It shouldnt...

Do it through WHM.. Then, PROFTPD will fail. Login to SSH, change it in /etc/hosts and you should be all set.

only thing: &Edit Setup& will show the old one, or at least it did for me
