Put an entry in /etc/hosts with the fully qualified domain name (FQDN). If the system has a fixed IP address, use it; if not, use 127.0.1.1. Your /etc/hosts will then look like: 127.0.0.1 localhost 10.0.0.100 system.example.com system or 127.0.0.1 localhost 127.0.1.1 system.example.com system That will fix the 'hostname -f' problem. -- "You can have everything in life you want if you help enough other people get what they want" - Zig Ziglar.
