$ hostname -a
shows what the machine thinks is its fqdn
Now, this answers with an empty string.
hostname -f and --fqdn give the answer I was wanting
to see.
check also
/etc/networking/interfaces
for holdover of old domain name.
There is no such file. Did you mean /etc/network/interfaces?
That exists and has all the interfaces data, but no mention
of a domain name.
But where does the system keep the domain name it uses at boot?
Doing
man hostname or sethostname might be in order here.
