Description Michael Redinger 2002-04-21 20:33:02 UTC 
Performing a kickstart installation of beta 4 using DHCP (network --bootproto dhcp), the resulting system does have a hostname set.

/etc/sysconfig/network:
HOSTNAME=.....

/etc/hosts:
127.0.0.1	NFQHN localhost.localdomain localhost


I think this is wrong ...

msf was looking at the network screen
Comment 2 Michael Fulbright 2002-08-14 21:45:21 UTC 
What is NFQHN ?
Comment 3 Michael Redinger 2002-08-15 12:28:28 UTC 
Oh, sorry. It's the hostname (not fully qualified, without the domain part).
Comment 4 Jeremy Katz 2002-08-19 18:44:49 UTC 
This is the way we've always done things; otherwise sendmail and apache httpd
are unhappy trying to start
