This is another problem which appeared after an 
update of Squeeze on February 7 or 8.  

Joule is a router.  dnsmasq and resolvconf 
have worked for months with no problem.  
Now the machine doesn't recognize its local 
name.  Other names inside and outside the 
LAN are still resolved.  For example, 
  telnet://pe...@172.23.5.1
and 
  telnet://pe...@joule.yi.org
work but 
  telnet://pe...@joule
and 
  telnet://pe...@joule.invalid
fail.

telnet://pe...@172.23.5.1 gets these lines in the syslog.
Feb 15 12:47:10 joule in.telnetd[2885]: connect from 172.23.5.2 (172.23.5.2)
Feb 15 12:47:10 joule telnetd[2885]: doit: getaddrinfo: Name or service not 
known

This is the last message to the console at startup.
apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name,
using 127.0.0.1 for ServerName

Also I wonder whether a problem with qpopper 
derives from this name problem.

Results are the same with kernels 2.6.30-2-686 
and 2.6.32-trunk-686.

/etc/hosts has the name of the machine.  
Where is the domain name recorded?  
Why does this problem appear now?

Thanks,       ... Peter E.
