the variable $LOCALDOMAIN does not seems to be part of the environment. echo $LOCALDOMAIN yields nothing and also: cat /proc/[0-9]*/environ | grep DOMAIN shows me nothing There is some more information that might be usefull: minerva:~# cat /proc/sys/kernel/hostname minerva.redcetus.com minerva:~# cat /proc/sys/kernel/domainname (none) minerva:~# hostname minerva.redcetus.com I'll check the wildcard again but i tested that before and i doubt its the cause, besides, it works quite different. For example: minerva:~# host alskjdalsdj.redcetus.com alskjdalsdj.redcetus.com is an alias for minerva0.redcetus.com. minerva0.redcetus.com has address 200.87.125.196 but minerva:~# host alskjdalsdj Host alskjdalsdj not found: 3(NXDOMAIN) and: minerva:~# ping alskjdalsdj -c1 PING minerva0.redcetus.com (200.87.125.196): 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 200.87.125.196: icmp_seq=0 ttl=255 time=0.0 ms --- minerva0.redcetus.com ping statistics --- 1 packets transmitted, 1 packets received, 0% packet loss round-trip min/avg/max = 0.0/0.0/0.0 ms seems just equal to: minerva:~# ping alskjdalsdj.redcetus.com -c1 PING minerva0.redcetus.com (200.87.125.196): 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 200.87.125.196: icmp_seq=0 ttl=255 time=0.0 ms --- minerva0.redcetus.com ping statistics --- 1 packets transmitted, 1 packets received, 0% packet loss round-trip min/avg/max = 0.0/0.0/0.0 ms Thanks a lot Frank.
