hi,
just a question about the purpose of Long.pm. Am I right asuming, it
just tries to get local machines hostname and domainname. nothing else
additionaly. Correct? Just to ensure, i dont blow anything :)
well, asuming this, a friend helped me solving the problem. in
Sys::Hostname::Long we replaced method 'exec_hostname_domainname' with this one:
'exec_new_domainname' => {
'title' => 'new version',
'description' => 'new version',
'exec' => sub {
open HOSTNAME, "<", "/etc/hostname.hme0" or warn;
open DOMAINNAME, "<", "/etc/defaultdomain" or warn;
my $tmp = <HOSTNAME> . '.' . <DOMAINNAME>;
close HOSTNAME;
close DOMAINNAME;
$tmp =~ tr/\0\r\n//d;
return $tmp;
}
},
testall.pl gave correct answer, after these changes.
this seems working fineat all, since those syslog warnings disapeared. Can
anyone confirm or validate, what we did with Long.pm?
thanks in advance.
regards,
Matthias
