Cannot change host name

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. IP is dynamic through IP reservation (always the same)
2. Go to Setup -> Host
3. Under host details it currently has the defaults. IP settings are DHCP. When 
I change the hostname/workgroup and hit submit, the box crashes (cannot access 
web GUI/telnet/ping - router also shows it is no longer connected/connecting). 
I have to hard boot the NAS. Of course, because I did not have the opportunity 
to save settings, it resets to default.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Alt-F-0.1B7.bin on the DNS-323.

I can't reproduce this.

-Have you edited /etc/network/interfaces ?
-Do you change to DHCP at the same time that you change the hostname/workgroup,
-or is DHCP already selected on entry and then you change the 
hostname/workgroup? 

There is an issue regarding the workgroup. If the DHCP server sends a domain, 
it will be used in samba as the workgroup, and that might not make sense.

You could keep the front button pressed by more than 3 sec to do a soft reset, 
read the AboutLedsAndButtons wiki entry

I'm closing, as no further feedback was provided. Also 0.1RC1 is out.

• Changed state: Done

Yeah - sorry. I gave up and restored back to factory default. 
I didn't edit the network/interfaces
DHCP was already the selected entry and then I changed the hostname. 

Thanks for trying.
