hkunz@maximilian:^~% cat /etc/hostname maximilian hkunz@maximilian:^~% ls -la /etc/os-release lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 Nov 30 13:37 /etc/os-release -> ../usr/lib/os-release hkunz@maximilian:^~% ls -a /usr/lib/os-release /usr/lib/os-release hkunz@maximilian:^~% cat /usr/lib/os-release PRETTY_NAME="Debian GNU/Linux 8 (jessie)" NAME="Debian GNU/Linux" VERSION_ID="8" VERSION="8 (jessie)" ID=debian HOME_URL="http://www.debian.org/"; SUPPORT_URL="http://www.debian.org/support/"; BUG_REPORT_URL="https://bugs.debian.org/"; this looks fine to me. anyhow I realized that I had (by mistake) kernel.hostname = kernel.domainname = in /etc/sysctl.d/10-networking.conf I filled in the correct values and that fixed the problem. Probably it would also have worked if I just removed those lines, but I did not test that. Best and thanks for your support, Hp
