    1. In Terminal window you will type the instructions that follow: 
      1. sudo scutil --sudo scutil --set HostName <new host name>
      2. Use the HostName in the Sharings settings that you located earlier for <new host name>
    1. Enter your password and press Enter/ Return
    2. Your HostName will print out
    3. Your HostName should match your Sharings settings HostName
