Hi, I know this is a recursive question, but this weekend I've been reisntalling a box, and, as I had some hostname problems, I decided to look for "the definitive answer".... I did not find it.
Finally, decided to set hostname and dnsdomainname in /etc/conf.d/ files. But with that set, hostname -f gave me errors. So I set in /etc/hosts: 127.0.0.1 locahost my_IP hostname.domain.com hostname And hostname commnad returned correct values. Is this the definitive way of doing it? I found some docs where is said that hosts file should look like: 127.0.0.1 localhost hostname hostname.domain.com or other which says that is not needed to edit hosts file, that conf.d fles are enought for a correct fqdn... thanks in advance! -- Arnau Bria http://blog.emergetux.net Wiggum: Dispara a las ruedas Lou.
