I would expect the behavior in step #3 if the search or domain parameters are set in /etc/resolv.conf. They should both "No such name". When the trailing . is added it is simply saying that the host.domain-name is absolute and the value in search or domain should not be applied. What is more curious to me is why when you enter "ping furdishcamp.com" you are getting the IP address of your system. I think that is what you are saying. FWIW, there isn't much value in obscuring IP addresses or domain names. -- Never be afraid to laugh at yourself, after all, you could be missing out on the joke of the century. -- Dame Edna Everage -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
