However, Luci seems to imply that the default is $HOSTNAME because it shows $HOSTNAME if the field is unset. Your guess ("it may pull from ...") appears to be incorrect, and is/was my confusion as well.
Fixing Luci would seem to be straightforward (default is ""). Fixing the backend (default is "$HOSTNAME") would be a change of behavior. I will look into both options. -- -Justin justinval...@gmail.com
