Description of Problem: With redhat-config-network-1.1.15-1, when you are adding an ethernet connection, on the third screen of that process (Configure Network Settings) there's a dialog box at the top of the screen for hostname, then there's another dialog box under the DHCP settings heading. If you enter a hostname into the box at the top of the screen, then it will get written to both the /etc/sysconfig/network file (as it should) as well as the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 file, as an option to pass up to the DHCP server. This seems wrong to me, as I didn't enter the hostname into the DHCP settings section. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How Reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual Results: Expected Results: Additional Information:
you are right... removed the upper "Hostname" entry /etc/sysconfig/network:HOSTNAME should be set in the main dialog in the DNS tab. fixed in CVS
Fix confirmed with redhat-config-network-1.1.16-1.
