     DESCRIPTION
          This documentation is no longer being maintained and may be
          inaccurate or incomplete.  The Texinfo documentation is now
          the authoritative source.

          This manual page documents the GNU version of hostname.
          With no arguments, hostname prints the name of the current
          host system.  With one argument, it sets the current host
          name to the specified string.  Usually, only a privileged
          user may set the host name.

        OPTIONS
          --help
               Print a usage message on standard output and exit
               successfully.

          --version
               Print version information on standard output then exit
               successfully.
