This guide explains how to change the hostname on your s&box server. The hostname is the name displayed to players in the server list, helping them identify your server.

You can update this setting by modifying the hostname option in the Config section of your panel. The steps below will walk you through applying this change so it appears in-game.


#Changing the Hostname

  1. Access your Control Panel and navigate to the Config tab.

  2. Locate the Hostname option and set it to your desired server name. This is the name shown for your server in the server browser.

  3. Save and restart your server to ensure the new changes apply.
