Hostname Issue

I have a hostname issue I am stumped on. I have changed the hostname in system preferences and added a hostname entry in the hostconfig file. However, whenever I request "hostname" or "uname -n" I get the fully qualified domain and not just the entries I entered. Where can a change be made to only show the name and not the full domain for the above command?

Thanks
 
Do you use OS X client or Server? Even if you change the host name in system preferences, it won't change what the hostname in full is.
