Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.58-2.fc16 Description of problem: The dnsmasq.service-file sets the parameter -s (--domain) to $HOSTNAME. A simple DHCP server created by adding only dhcp-range to the config file gives unwanted results that are different from previous versions of Fedora. The results pretend that my machine is named server.example.com and the a dhcp-client is requesting client as hostname. Actual results: client gets known as client.server.example.com by default. Expected results: client should get client.example.com by default. Additional info: SysV-initscripts based versions up to Fedora 15 used the result of dnsdomainname if available. If no dnsdomainname could be found it did not set the parameter. Suggestion: Removing this parameter from dnsmasq.service and always let the user decide.
This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database. Reassigning to the new owner of this component.
I agree. And removing -s $HOSTNAME from the service file will solve Bug 822797
Removing -s $HOSTNAME seems like the best solution at this time.

Thanks Tomas. "EnvironmentFile=-/etc/sysconfig/network" is then unnecessary. At least in F18 where it is almost empty.
