Description Greg Nichols 2014-03-10 13:07:38 UTC 
Description of problem:

The hwcert-client (hwcert command) prompts for the local hwcert test server.  It would be helpful that if the user enters a URL, hwcert-client would strip the hostname out of the URL.   Otherwise, mysterious errors appear later when the the server hostname is used.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

hwcert-client 1.7, 1.6.
Comment 1 Greg Nichols 2014-03-21 12:51:07 UTC 
There are some other problems with applying the local test server.   If hwcert-backend plan --server <host> on a new or clean (after hwcert-backend clean all) system.  The <host> is verified, but later ignored when filling in certification fields.

It should really appear as the default, editable value when the local test server host is requested by the prompts.

Also, invalid host names should be checked-for.
