[NTLUG:Discuss] @home on a LINUX system -- computer identity?

I just noticed something odd about AT&T's @home cable service. Unless it 
finds the Windows computer name they assign you, it won't work. (Network 
Neighborhood --> Identification --> Computer name).

So, if I'm going to run my LINUX box over the cable service, how do I 
replicate that computer name in LINUX? (Where do I configure it?). I'm 
using the Red Hat 7.0 distribution, if that makes any kind of difference.

Thanks.

Michael
