The page used to say:

 To set the system hostname, do something like the following:
  echo "hostname.domain.com" > /etc/hostname

However, setup-hostname only accepts short-form hostnames (without <code>.domain.com</code>). Which is it?

== IPv6 should not be optional ==

"Enabling IPv6 (Optional)"

The [https://www.nivex.net/gallery/index.php/nivex/Trips/self2010/IMG_1731 first presentation] at SouthEast LinuxFest 2010 was titled "IPv6: No Longer Optional". That was 10 years ago. Please enable it by default.
