Description of problem: To install a server key, the FQDN is determined as the output of `hostname`. While this works with a standard installation, many people rather have only the host part as hostname and do the mapping via /etc/hosts or DNS. This way, only the hostname and not the FQDN is used in the keys/certs. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.0.40-21.3 How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Set hostname to e.g. 'host', not 'host.domain.tld' 2. Install mod_ssl Actual results: See above. Expected results: FQDN in keys/certs. Additional info: make the line: FQDN=`hostname` in %post read: FQDN=`hostname -f`
Looking at this for FC2... hostname -f is more risky, since it actually does a DNS lookup on the system hostname, and this may all happen at anaconda-time. Since the end result is just a self-signed cert of limited value anyway, I'd be inclined to stick with the status quo. Any compelling arguments?
WONTFIX without compelling arguments due to risk of a DNS lookup at %post time.
