| 3 | Launch the Terminal application |
|
| 4 | Type hostname and hit the enter/return key on the keyboard |

Note
If you are often on the Lab VPN, the hostname may change due to the connection with the Lab VPN. So, if you are having an issue locating the hostname of your computer on a service all of a sudden, you will want to rerun the instructions while connected to the Lab VPN and try checking for that hostname.
