Hi.. I have CP4.0 on solaris
1)I changed my fw hostname from tyogw01 to internetfw using this
tyogw01#hostname internetfw
internetfw#
2)After this I found I cannot reinstall my firewall policy, then I checked
my hosts file and found my hosts file is like below
internetfw# more /etc/hosts
#
# Internet host table
#
127.0.0.1 localhost
211.149.102.190 tyogw01 tyogw01. loghost
59.199.45.1 internal
3)Then I change the tyogw01 to internetfw then my host file become the
following, then everything run smoothly
internetfw# more /etc/hosts
#
# Internet host table
#
127.0.0.1 localhost
211.149.102.190 internetfw tyogw01. loghost
59.199.45.1 internal
4)After it, I tried to delete the dot (.) behind the tyogw01 to see what
happen, the hosts become the followings
internetfw# more /etc/hosts
#
# Internet host table
#
127.0.0.1 localhost
211.149.102.190 internetfw tyogw01 loghost
#211.149.102.190 internetfw tyogw01. loghost
59.199.45.1 internal
5)After that I got a lot of the following error messages on screen, May I
know why the "dot" must be there???????
internetfw# tail /var/adm/messages
Jul 23 17:01:00 internetfw sendmail[3123]: unable to qualify my own domain
name (internetf
w) -- using short name
6)I changed the hosts file and add the "dot"
The error stop appear
Can I just put without the "tyogw01."????
211.149.102.190 internetfw loghost
7)When I install the policy I found this message
Installing security policy XXX on all.all@internetfw
using interface "hme0"
Installing Security Policy on localhost(tyogw01) suceeded
Done
Why I still see "on localhost(tyogw01)"????
Should I changed the following file content from tyogw01 to internetfw????
internetfw# more /etc/hostname.hme0
tyogw01
