I have been having problems with having to reconfigure frontends because someone changed a hostname or domainname. Wouldn't it make more sense that when generating the initial config the host would generate a unique ID and save it onto the filesystem. It can then be the hosts unique id for all settings.


In mysql.txt:
DBHostName=MyUniqueKey

Its actually LocalHostName=MyUniqueKey.


And this is probably a users question, more than -dev.

Well, I think that it is more "user friendly" to have this an autogenerated ID to avoid conflicts and "losing settings" (I know they aren't lost). I think this should be easy and with my modest C++ skills should be able to write a patch.
