Change hostname?

When I installed Vesta on my Centos6.4 server, I used the server hostname "cp.bwl*******.com" (replaced part with asterisks)

Now that domain has expired and Vesta is having problems, because it tries to use that hostname for FTP and other things.
How can I change that setting in Vesta? I have already changed it in my Centos system, but it doesn't seem to fix the issues.

EDIT: Nevermind, that fixed it! Yay!

for thoses who want to know how:


6. Make sure server hostname is FQDN compliant
root@localhost:~# hostname
localhost
root@localhost:~# v-change-sys-hostname mail.vestacp.com
root@localhost:~# hostname
mail.vestacp.com

Does it break anything to change hostname?

Let's say I have mycp.mydomain.com then I decided to change it to vestacp.myotherdomain.com?

I am having a similar issue to this. I previously setup VestaCP with with a FQDN but it killed VSFTPD and has again done it on another instance. Emails go out to the end users but I cannot connect to vsftpd.

Never mind - Firewall was blocking the PASV ports
