Changing the hostname of your VPS is a very simple process and only takes a few minutes to complete. In order to do this, follow these instructions:

  1. Login to your client area at https://my.hawkhost.com/clientarea.php

  2. Select 'Services' from the navigation and then 'My Services' from the dropdown

  3. Locate your VPS and then select 'View Details'

  4. On the following page select 'Management Actions' and then 'Management' from the dropdown

  5. On the next page select the 'Change' icon next to the 'Hostname' field

  6. Enter your new hostname and hit 'Change Hostname'

Your VPS hostname should now reflect the new hostname you provided. If the hostname does not update, please submit a ticket with our VPS support department at https://support.hawkhost.com
