Hello All-

I've been playing around with kickstarts in spacewalk 7 and have gotten things to the point where I can completely configure a base system to my requirements and boot that system into a graphical interface without my interaction.  The last thing I would like to do is change the system name.  I can't seem to find any way to update a system's host name after it has registered to spacewalk, is there such an option?  Ideally I'd like to script this client side so I could execute a script on the machine one last time before it is good to go.    Worst case scenario, would it be possible to unregister the client, change its hostname, then re-register it with its new hostname, all form the client side?
